Psalms 79:8-11

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 saviour, 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.

¹¹May the groans of the prisoner come before you; free the children of death by your mighty arm.
