ברוך די-ין האמת
אל תכסי דמם

I think now this may be a very appropriate tehilim passage to say and mediate on:


ט עָזְרֵנוּ, אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׁעֵנוּ-- עַל-דְּבַר כְּבוֹד-שְׁמֶךָ;וְהַצִּילֵנוּ וְכַפֵּר עַל-חַטֹּאתֵינוּ, לְמַעַן שְׁמֶךָ.
9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the sake of the glory of Thy name; {N}and deliver us, and forgive our sins, for Thy name's sake.
י לָמָּה, יֹאמְרוּ הַגּוֹיִם-- אַיֵּה אֱלֹהֵיהֶם:יִוָּדַע בַּגֹּיִים לְעֵינֵינוּ; נִקְמַת, דַּם-עֲבָדֶיךָ הַשָּׁפוּךְ.
10 Wherefore should the nations say: 'Where is their God?' {N}Let the avenging of Thy servants' blood that is shed be made known among the nations in our sight.
יא תָּבוֹא לְפָנֶיךָ, אֶנְקַת אָסִיר: כְּגֹדֶל זְרוֹעֲךָ--הוֹתֵר, בְּנֵי תְמוּתָה.
11 Let the groaning of the prisoner come before Thee; according to the greatness of Thy power set free those that are appointed to death;
יב וְהָשֵׁב לִשְׁכֵנֵינוּ שִׁבְעָתַיִם, אֶל-חֵיקָם;חֶרְפָּתָם אֲשֶׁר חֵרְפוּךָ אֲדֹנָי.
12 And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, {N}wherewith they have reproached Thee, O Lord.
יג וַאֲנַחְנוּ עַמְּךָ, וְצֹאן מַרְעִיתֶךָ-- נוֹדֶה לְּךָ, לְעוֹלָם:לְדוֹר וָדֹר-- נְסַפֵּר, תְּהִלָּתֶךָ.
13 So we that are Thy people and the flock of Thy pasture will give Thee thanks for ever; {N}we will tell of Thy praise to all generations. {P}
