He said: “The LORD came from Sinai and dawned upon us from Seir; He shone forth from Mount Paran and came with myriads of holy ones, with flaming fire at His right hand.

If only that day had turned to darkness! May God above disregard it; may no light shine upon it.

Does it please You to oppress me, to reject the work of Your hands and favor the schemes of the wicked?

…to a land of utter darkness, of deep shadow and disorder, where even the light is like darkness.”

From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth.

For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lilies of the Covenant.” A Psalm of Asaph. Hear us, O Shepherd of Israel, who leads Joseph like a flock; You who sit enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth

O LORD, God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth.
