Context of Psalms 74:10
8They said in their hearts: “Let us crush them totally!” They burned down all the meeting places of God in the land. 9We do not see our signs. No longer is there any prophet— and no one among us knows how long. How long, O God, will the adversary mock? Will the enemy revile Your Name forever? 11Why do You hold back Your hand, Your right hand? Draw it out of Your bosom and consume them! 12Yet God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the land.
