6 Upon the heathen pour thy wrath, That have not known thee [and thy] fame; And on the Kingdoms which have not Ador'd thy [great and] holy name.
7 For these are they that Jacob have [Slain and] devoured cruelly; And made his famous dwelling-place As ruinous [and wast] to lye.
8 O charge not on us former sins, Thy tender [pardoning] mercies show; Let them prevent us speedily, For we are now brought [very] low.
9 For thy name's glory help us, Lord, Who [art and] hast our Saviour bin; For thy names-sake deliver us, And purge away our [guilt and] sin.
