Psalms 79:5-9

⁵How long, LORD? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealousy burn like fire?

⁶Pour out your wrath on the nations that don’t know you, on the kingdoms that don’t call on your name,

⁷for they have devoured Jacob, and destroyed his homeland.

⁸Don’t hold the iniquities of our forefathers against us. Let your tender mercies speedily meet us, for we are in desperate need.

⁹Help us, God of our salvation, for the glory of your name. Deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your name’s sake.
