Psalms 74:3-23

³Raise thine hands into the prides of them; how great things the enemy did wickedly in the holy place.

⁴And they that hated thee; had glory in the midst of thy solemnity. They setted their signs, either banners, to be signs on the highest place, as in the outgoing or going out; and they knew not.

⁵As in a wood of trees, they hewed down with axes the gates thereof into itself;

⁶they casted down it with an ax, and a broad falling ax.

⁷They burnt with fire thy saintuary; they defouled the tabernacle of thy name in earth.

⁸The kindred of them said together in their heart; Make we all the feast days of God to cease in the earth.

⁹We have not seen our signs, now there is no prophet; and he shall no more know us.

¹⁰God, how long shall the enemy say despite? the adversary stirreth to ire thy name into the end.

¹¹Why turnest thou away thine hand, to not draw out thy right hand from the midst of thy bosom, till into the end?

¹²Forsooth God our king before worlds, wrought health in the midst of the earth.

¹³Thou madest firm the sea by thy virtue; thou hast troubled the heads of the dragons in waters.

¹⁴Thou hast broken the heads of the dragon; thou hast given him to be meat to the peoples of Ethiopians.

¹⁵Thou hast broken wells, and strands or streams; thou madest dry the floods of Eitan.

¹⁶The day is thine, and the night is thine; thou madest the morrowtide and the sun.

¹⁷Thou madest all the ends of the earth; summer, and ver time, either springing time, thou formedest those or them.

¹⁸Be thou mindful of this thing, the enemy hath said shame to the Lord; and the unwise people hath excited to ire thy name.

¹⁹Betake thou not to beasts men acknowledging to thee; and forget thou not into the end the souls of thy poor men.

²⁰Behold into thy testament; for they that be made dark of earth, be full-filled with the houses of wickednesses.

²¹A meek man be not turned away made ashamed; a poor man and needy shall praise thy name.

²²God, rise up, deem thou thy cause; be thou mindful of thy shames, either upbraidings, of those that be all day of the unwise man.

²³Forget thou not the voices of thine enemies; the pride of them that hate thee ascendeth or goeth up ever-more.
