Psalms 79:1-7

1O GodH430, the heathen are comeH935 intoH935 thine inheritanceH5159; thy holyH6944 templeH1964 have they defiledH2930; they have laidH7760 JerusalemH3389 on heaps.
2The deadH5038 bodiesH1320 of thy servantsH5650 have they givenH5414 to be meatH1320 unto the fowls of the heavenH8064, the fleshH1320 of thy saints unto the beastsH2416 of the earthH776.
3Their bloodH1818 have they shedH8210 like waterH4325 roundH5439 aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389; and there was noneH369 to buryH6912 them.
4We are becomeH1961 a reproachH2781 to our neighbours, a scornH2781 and derisionH3933 to them that are roundH5439 aboutH1961 usH5439.
5HowH4100 longH5704, O LORDH3068, wilt thou be angryH599 for everH5331? shall thy jealousyH7068 burnH1197 like fireH784?
6PourH8210 outH8210 thy wrathH2534 uponH5921 the heathen that knowH3045 thee notH3808, and uponH5921 the kingdomsH4467 that callH7121 notH3808 uponH5921 thy nameH8034.
7For they have devouredH398 JacobH3290, and laidH8074 wasteH8074 his habitation.
