Psalms 79:7-10

⁷because they have killed Israeli people and they have ruined your country.

⁸Do not punish us because of the sins that our ancestors committed! Be merciful to us now/quickly, because we are very discouraged.

⁹God, you have saved/rescued us many times, so help us now; rescue us and forgive us for having sinned in order that other people will honor you MTY.

¹⁰It is not right that RHQ other people-groups say about us, “If their God is very powerful, ◄surely he should help them/why does he not help them►?” Allow us to see you punishing the people of other nations in return for their shedding our blood; they have killed many of us, your people.
