A Prayer for Divine Intervention

7 I will tell of the faithful acts of the Lord,
of the Lord’s praiseworthy deeds.
I will tell about all ^{▼▼tn Heb “according to all which.”} the Lord did for us,
the many good things he did for the family of Israel, ^{▼▼tn Heb “greatness of goodness to the house of Israel which he did for them.”}
because of ^{▼▼tn Heb “according to.”} his compassion and great faithfulness.
8 He said, “Certainly they will be my people,
children who are not disloyal.” ^{▼▼tn Heb “children [who] do not act deceitfully.” Here the verb refers to covenantal loyalty.}
He became their deliverer.
