Psalms 79:1-7

1O GodH430, the nationsH1471 are comeH935 into thine inheritanceH5159;Thy holyH6944 templeH1964 have they defiledH2930;They have laid JerusalemH3389 in heaps.2The dead bodiesH1320 of thy servantsH5650 have they givenH5414 to be foodH3978 unto the birdsH5775 of the heavensH8064,The fleshH1320 of thy saints unto the beasts of the earthH776.3Their bloodH1818 have they shedH8210 like waterH4325 roundH5439 about JerusalemH3389;And there was none to buryH6912 them.4We areH1961 becomeH1961 a reproachH2781 to our neighborsH7934,A scoffing and derision to them that areH1961 roundH5439 about us.5HowH4100 long, O Jehovah? wilt thou be angryH599 for ever?Shall thy jealousyH7068 burnH1197 like fireH784?6PourH8210 out thy wrathH2534 upon the nationsH1471 that knowH3045 thee not,And upon the kingdomsH4467 that callH7121 not upon thy nameH8034.7For they have devouredH398 JacobH3290,And laid waste his habitation.
