Gather together

So Judah gathered together to seek help from the Lord; they even came from all the cities of Judah to seek the Lord.

And all the people gathered as one man at the square which was in front of the Water Gate, and they asked Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses which the Lord had given to Israel.

Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the sons of Israel assembled with fasting, in sackcloth and with dirt upon them.

“Go, assemble all the Jews who are found in Susa, and fast for me; do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my maidens also will fast in the same way. And thus I will go in to the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish.”

Consecrate a fast,

Proclaim a solemn assembly;
Gather the elders
And all the inhabitants of the land
To the house of the Lord your God,
And cry out to the Lord.

“Yet even now,” declares the Lord,
“Return to Me with all your heart,
And with fasting, weeping and mourning;

For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst.”

O nation

Alas, sinful nation,
People weighed down with iniquity,

Offspring of evildoers,

Sons who act corruptly!
They have abandoned the Lord,
They have despised the Holy One of Israel,
They have turned away from Him.

“I have forsaken My house,
I have abandoned My inheritance;
I have given the beloved of My soul
Into the hand of her enemies.

Then I annihilated the three shepherds in one month, for my soul was impatient with them, and their soul also was weary of me.

Desired

Indeed, while following the way of Your judgments, O Lord,
We have waited for You eagerly;

Your name, even Your memory, is the desire of our souls.
