Psalms 73:8-16

⁸They have said in their heart, even all their kindred together, Come, let us abolish the feasts of the Lord from the earth.

⁹We have not seen our signs; there is no longer a prophet; and God will not know us any more.

¹⁰How long, O God, shall the enemy reproach? shall the enemy provoke thy name for ever?

¹¹Wherefore turnest thou away thine hand, and thy right hand from the midst of thy bosom for ever?

¹²But God is our King of old; he has wrought salvation in the midst of the earth.

¹³Thou didst establish the sea, in thy might, thou didst break to pieces the heads of the dragons in the water.

¹⁴Thou didst break to pieces the heads of the dragon; thou didst give him for meat to the Ethiopian nations.

¹⁵Thou didst cleave fountains and torrents; thou driedst up mighty rivers.

¹⁶The day is thine, and the night is thine; thou hast prepared the sun and the moon.
