הֵ֣ן גּ֤וֹי לֹֽא־תֵדַע֙ תִּקְרָ֔א וְג֥וֹי לֹֽא־יְדָע֖וּךָ אֵלֶ֣יךָ יָר֑וּצוּ לְמַ֙עַן֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ וְלִקְד֥וֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל כִּ֥י פֵאֲרָֽךְ׃ (ס)
זע, אַ פֿאָלק װאָס דו קענסט ניט, װעסטו רופֿן, און אַ פֿאָלק װאָס קען דיך ניט, װעט לױפֿן צו דיר, פֿון װעגן ה׳ דײַן גאָט, און צוליב דעם הײליקן פֿון ישׂראל, װײַל ער האָט דיך באַשײנט.
Psalms
Deliver me from the contentions of the people [(that I not be punished for miscarriage of justice and exploitation of Jews)]. Make me the head of nations [(where there is no such liability)]; let a people unknown to me serve me.
Psalms
At ear's report [i.e., by word of my emissaries alone] shall they submit to me; the sons of strangers shall prevaricate to me [in fear].
II Samuel
You rescued me from the antagonists among my people. You preserved me to be a leader of nations, A people that I did not [even] know serves me.
