Even though our sins testify against us,
    help us, Lord, for your name’s sake.
We have turned away from you
    and sinned against you time and again.
You are the hope of Israel,
    its savior in times of trouble.
Why are you like a stranger in the land,
    like a tourist spending only the night?
Why are you like one taken by surprise,
    like a warrior unable to act?
Yet you are in our midst, Lord;
    we are called by your name.
    Don’t give up on us.

O Lord, though our iniquities testify against us, do thou it for thy name's sake: for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee.

O the hope of Israel, the saviour thereof in time of trouble, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night?

Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.

Do it (A)for Your name’s sake;
For our backslidings are many,
We have sinned against You.
(B)O the Hope of Israel, his Savior in time of trouble,
Why should You be like a stranger in the land,

„Dacă nelegiuirile noastre mărturisesc împotriva noastră, lucrează pentru(A) Numele Tău, Doamne! Căci abaterile noastre sunt multe, am păcătuit împotriva Ta. Tu, care eşti nădejdea(B) lui Israel, Mântuitorul lui la vreme de nevoie, pentru ce să fii ca un străin în ţară, ca un călător care intră doar să petreacă noaptea în ea? De ce să fii ca un om încremenit, ca un viteaz care(C) nu ne poate ajuta? Şi totuşi Tu eşti în mijlocul(D) nostru, Doamne, şi Numele Tău este chemat peste noi. De aceea nu ne părăsi!”
