Lord, be kind to us.
    We have waited for your help.
Lord, give us strength every morning.
    Save us when we are in trouble.
Your powerful voice makes people run away in fear.
    Your greatness causes the nations to run away.
Like locusts, your enemies will take away the things you stole in war.
    Like locusts rushing about, they will take your wealth.

Yahweh, be gracious to us, we wait for you.
    Be our[a] arm in the mornings,
    indeed our salvation in the time of trouble.
At the sound of tumult, peoples fled;
    because of your exaltation, nations scattered.
And your spoil is gathered,
    as the gathering of the locust,
        as a swarm of locusts storming on it.
