Context of Psalms 74:10

8They said in their heart, “Let us completely subdue them.” They have burned all the meeting places of God in the land. 9We do not see our signs; There is no longer any prophet, Nor is there any among us who knows how long. How long, O God, will the adversary revile, And the enemy spurn Your name forever? 11Why do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand? From within Your bosom, destroy them! 12Yet God is my king from of old, Who works deeds of deliverance in the midst of the earth.
