Psalms 74:5-8

⁵They acted like men chopping down a forest with axes.

⁶With axes and hammers they smashed in the carved wooden panels.

⁷Then they set fire to your Temple, burning it to the ground. They defiled the place where you live, the place that bears your name.

⁸They said to themselves, “Let's destroy it all!” So they burned down every place where God was worshiped throughout the land.
