Psalms 79:4-9

⁴We have become a reproach for our neighbors, mocking and derision to those who are around us.

⁵How long, Yahweh? Will you stay angry forever? How long will your jealous anger burn like fire?

⁶Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not know you and on the kingdoms that do not call upon your name.

⁷For they have devoured Jacob and destroyed his villages.

⁸Do not hold the sins of our forefathers against us; may your merciful actions come to us, for we are very low.

⁹Help us, God of our salvation, for the sake of the glory of your name; save us and forgive our sins for your name's sake.
