Hear my prayer for mercy when I call to you for help,
when I lift my hands toward your most holy place.
Do not drag me away with wicked people,
with troublemakers who speak of peace with their neighbors
but have evil in their hearts.
Pay them back for what they have done,
for their evil deeds.
Pay them back for what their hands have done,
and give them what they deserve.

    and bring back on them what they deserve.(F)
