Psalms 79
O
God,
the
a
heathen
are
come
into
thine
inheritance;
thy
holy
b
temple
have
they
defiled;
they
have
laid
Jerusalem
on
c
heaps.
2 The
dead
bodies
of
thy
servants
have
they
given
to
be
meat
unto
the
fowls
of
the
heaven,
the
flesh
of
thy
saints
unto
the
beasts
of
the
earth.
3 Their
blood
have
they
a
shed
like
water
round
about
Jerusalem;
and
there
was
none
to
b
bury
them.
4 We
are
become
a
reproach
to
our
neighbours,
a
scorn
and
derision
to
them
that
are
round
about
us.
5 How
long,
Lord?
wilt
thou
be
a
angry
for
ever?
shall
thy
jealousy
burn
like
fire?
6 Pour
out
thy
wrath
upon
the
heathen
that
have
not
known
thee,
and
upon
the
kingdoms
that
have
not
called
upon
thy
name.
7 For
they
have
devoured
Jacob,
and
laid
waste
his
dwelling
place.
8 O
remember
not
against
us
former
iniquities:
let
thy
tender
mercies
speedily
a
prevent
us:
for
we
are
brought
very
low.
9 Help
us,
O
God
of
our
salvation,
for
the
glory
of
thy
name:
and
deliver
us,
and
purge
away
our
sins,
for
thy
name's
sake.
10 Wherefore
should
the
heathen
say,
Where
is
their
God?
let
him
be
known
among
the
heathen
in
our
sight
by
the
revenging
of
the
blood
of
thy
servants
which
is
shed.
11 Let
the
sighing
of
the
prisoner
come
before
thee;
according
to
the
greatness
of
thy
power
preserve
thou
those
that
are
appointed
to
die;
12 And
render
unto
our
neighbours
sevenfold
into
their
bosom
their
reproach,
wherewith
they
have
reproached
thee,
O
Lord.
13 So
we
thy
a
people
and
b
sheep
of
thy
pasture
will
give
thee
thanks
for
ever:
we
will
shew
forth
thy
praise
to
all
generations.
