Bow down Thine ear, O Lord, to me and hear me: save Thy servant, O my God, that trusteth in Thee: have mercy on me, O Lord, for I have cried to Thee all day.  Give joy to the soul of Thy servant; for to Thee, O Lord, I have lifted up my soul.

God in His holy place; God who maketh men of one mind to dwell in a house; He shall give power and strength to His people.  Let God arise and let His enemies be scattered: and let them that hate Him flee from before His face.
