Psalms 79:5-12

5How long, Lord? Will You be angry forever? Will Your jealousy burn like fire?

6Pour out Your wrath on the nations that do not know You, And on the kingdoms that do not call on Your name.

7For they have devoured Jacob, And laid waste his dwelling place.

8Oh, do not remember former iniquities against us! Let Your tender mercies come speedily to meet us, For we have been brought very low.

9Help us, O God of our salvation, For the glory of Your name; And deliver us, and provide atonement for our sins, For Your name’s sake!

10Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Let there be known among the nations in our sight The avenging of the blood of Your servants which has been shed.

11Let the groaning of the prisoner come before You; According to the greatness of Your power Preserve those who are appointed to die;

12And return to our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom Their reproach with which they have reproached You, O Lord.
