Then Samson prayed to the Lord,“ Sovereign Lord, remember me. Please, God, strengthen me just once more, and let me with one blow get revenge on the Philistines for my two eyes.”

Then Samson called to the Lord and said,“ O Lord God, please remember me and please strengthen me only this once, O God, that I may be avenged on the Philistines for my two eyes.”

Then Samson prayed to the Lord,“ Sovereign Lord, remember me again. O God, please strengthen me just one more time. With one blow let me pay back the Philistines for the loss of my two eyes.”

He called out to the LORD,“ Lord GOD, please remember me. Strengthen me, God, just once more. With one act of vengeance, let me pay back the Philistines for my two eyes.”

Then Samson called to the Lord and said,“ Lord God, please remember me and please strengthen me just this time, O God, that I may at once take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes.”

Then Samson called to the Lord, saying,“ O Lord GOD, remember me, I pray! Strengthen me, I pray, just this once, O God, that I may with one blow take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes!”

And Samson called unto Jehovah, and said, O Lord Jehovah, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.

He called out to the Lord:“ Lord God, please remember me. Strengthen me, God, just once more. With one act of vengeance, let me pay back the Philistines for my two eyes.”

Samson called to Yahweh, and said,“ Lord Yahweh, remember me, please, and strengthen me, please, only this once, God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.”

Lord, you understand how much I’m suffering. Show concern for me. Take care of me. Pay back those who are trying to harm me. You are patient. Don’t take my life away from me. Think about how much shame I suffer because of you.

Because your love is faithful, put an end to my enemies. Destroy all of them, because I serve you.

The Lord doesn’t turn his back on people forever.He might bring suffering. But he will also show loving concern. How great his faithful love is!

From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God.He said,“ When I was in trouble, I called out to the Lord. And he answered me. When I was deep in the place of the dead, I called out for help. And you listened to my cry.

Call out to me when trouble comes. I will save you. And you will honor me.”

Lord, remember how your enemies have made fun of you. Remember how foolish people have attacked you with their words.Don’t hand over Israel, your dove, to those wild animals. Don’t forget your suffering people forever.Honor the covenant you made with us. Horrible things are happening in every dark corner of the land.Don’t let your suffering people be put to shame. May those who are poor and needy praise you.God, rise up. Stand up for your cause. Remember how foolish people make fun of you all day long.Pay close attention to the shouts of your enemies. The trouble they cause never stops.

Remember Alexander, the one who works with metal. He did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will pay him back for what he has done.

They called out in a loud voice.“ How long, Lord and King, holy and true?” they asked.“ How long will you wait to judge those who live on the earth? How long will it be until you pay them back for killing us?”

Samson was very thirsty. So he cried out to the Lord. He said,“ You have helped me win this great battle. Do I have to die of thirst now? Must I fall into the power of people who haven’t even been circumcised? They aren’t your people.”

What more can I say? I don’t have time to tell about all the others. I don’t have time to talk about Gideon, Barak, Samson and Jephthah. I don’t have time to tell about David and Samuel and the prophets.

Godly people will be glad when those who have hurt them are paid back. They will dip their feet in the blood of those who do evil.Then people will say,“ The godly will get their reward. There really is a God who judges the earth.”

Our God, won’t you please judge them? We don’t have the power to face this huge army that’s attacking us. We don’t know what to do. But we’re looking to you to help us.”

Then I called out to the Lord. I cried out,“ Lord, save me!”

He will call out to me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in times of trouble. I will save him and honor him.

“ Lord, may all your enemies be destroyed. But may all who love you be like the morning sun. May they be like the sun when it shines the brightest.” So the land was at peace for 40 years.

“ When my life was nearly over, I remembered you, Lord. My prayer rose up to you. It reached you in your holy temple in heaven.
