Psalms 79:4-10

⁴On every side our neighbors revile us and mock us and jeer at us.

⁵How long will you be angry, O Lord? Will your jealousy burn like fire forever?

⁶Pour out your wrath on the nations that don't know you, on the kingdoms that do not call on your name.

⁷For Jacob they devoured, they have desolated his home.

⁸Do not remember against us our ancestors' sins; O meet us soon with your pity, for utterly weak are we.

⁹Help us, O God our savior, for the renown of your name: for your reputation deliver us and cover over our sins.

¹⁰Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Let revenge for the outpoured blood of your servants be shown on the heathen before our eyes.
