⁸ Hope of Israel,^(A)
its Savior in time of distress,
why are you like a resident alien in the land,
like a traveler stopping only for the night?

⁷ Whoever found them devoured them.
Their adversaries said, “We’re not guilty;
instead, they have sinned against the Lord,
their righteous grazing land,^(A)
the hope of their ancestors,^(B) the Lord.”
