Psalms 79:5-12
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.8RememberH2142 not against us the iniquitiesH5771 of our forefathers:Let thy tender mercies speedily meetH6923 us;For we are brought veryH3966 lowH1809.9HelpH5826 us, O GodH430 of our salvationH3468, for the gloryH3519 of thy nameH8034;And deliverH5337 us, and forgive our sinsH2403, for thy name’sH8034 sakeH4616.10Wherefore should the nationsH1471 sayH559, WhereH346 is their GodH430?Let the avenging of the bloodH1818 of thy servantsH5650 which is shedH8210Be knownH3045 among the nationsH1471 in our sight.11Let the sighing of the prisonerH616 comeH935 before thee:According to the greatnessH1433 of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to deathH8546;12And render unto our neighborsH7934 sevenfoldH7659 into their bosomH2436Their reproachH2781, wherewith they have reproached thee, O LordH136.
