12. Jehovah, thou wilt ordain peace for us; for thou also hast wrought all our works for us.
13. Jehovah our God other lords than thee have had dominion over us; by thee only will we make mention of thy name.
14. They are dead, they shall not live; deceased, they shall not rise: for thou hast visited and destroyed them, and made all memory of them to perish.
15. Thou hast increased the nation, Jehovah, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified. Thou hadst removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.
16. Jehovah, in trouble they sought thee; they poured out their whispered prayer when thy chastening was upon them.
17. As a woman with child, that draweth near her delivery, is in travail, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been before thee, Jehovah.
