4. “మా దేవా, మా ప్రార్థన విను. మేము తృణీకారానికి గురి అయిన వాళ్ళం. వారు మాపై వేసే నిందలు వారి మీదికే వచ్చేలా చెయ్యి. వారు ఓడిపోవాలి. వారు బందీలుగా పోయే దేశంలో శత్రువులు వారిని దోచుకోవాలి.
TEV
4. మా దేవా ఆలకించుము, మేము తిరస్కారము నొందిన వారము; వారి నింద వారి తలలమీదికి వచ్చునట్లుచేసి, వారు చెరపట్టబడినవారై వారు నివసించు దేశములోనే వారిని దోపునకు అప్పగించుము.
