¹⁵ Thou hast been favourable to the nation, O Lord, thou hast been favourable to the nation: art thou glorified? thou hast removed all the ends of the earth far off.

¹⁶ Lord, they have sought after thee in distress, in the tribulation of murmuring thy instruction was with them.

¹⁷ As a woman with child, when she draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs: so are we become in thy presence, O Lord.
