38And shed innocent blood,
         The blood of their sons and their daughters,
         Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
         And the land was polluted with the blood.

39Thus they became unclean in their practices,
         And played the harlot in their deeds.

40Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against His people
         And He abhorred His inheritance.

41Then He gave them into the hand of the nations,
         And those who hated them ruled over them.

42Their enemies also oppressed them,
         And they were subdued under their power.

43Many times He would deliver them;
         They, however, were rebellious in their counsel,
         And so sank down in their iniquity.

44Nevertheless He looked upon their distress
         When He heard their cry;

45And He remembered His covenant for their sake,
         And relented according to the greatness of His lovingkindness.

46He also made them objects of compassion
         In the presence of all their captors.

47Save us, O LORD our God,
         And gather us from among the nations,
         To give thanks to Your holy name
         And glory in Your praise.

48Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel,
         From everlasting even to everlasting.
         And let all the people say, “Amen.”
         Praise the LORD!
