O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt Thou be angry against the prayer of Thy people?

Thou didst clear a place before it, and it took deep root, and filled the land.

The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, and the mighty cedars with the boughs thereof.

O God of hosts, return, we beseech Thee; look from heaven, and behold, and be mindful of this vine,
15 iwo mudzi wakasimwa noruoko rwenyu rworudyi, mwanakomana wamakazvirerera.
And of the stock which Thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that Thou madest strong for Thyself.
16 Muzambiringa wenyu watemerwa pasi, wapiswa nomoto; pakutuka kwenyu, vanhu venyu vanofa.
It is burned with fire, it is cut down; they perish at the rebuke of Thy countenance.

Let Thy hand be upon the man of Thy right hand, upon the son of man whom Thou madest strong for Thyself.

So shall we not turn back from Thee; quicken Thou us, and we will call upon Thy name.

O LORD God of hosts, restore us; cause Thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
