Help us, God, our deliverer,
    on account of your glorious name,
deliver us and forgive[a] our sins
    on account of your name.

    Let vengeance for the blood of your servants be meted[b] out
        before our eyes and among the nations.
11 Let the cries of the prisoners reach you.
    With the strength of your power,
        release those condemned to death.[c]
