Psalms 74:3-7

3Direct your steps to athe perpetual ruins;
the enemy has destroyed everything in the sanctuary!
4 Your foes have broared in the midst of your meeting place;
cthey set up their down signs for esigns.
5They were like those who swing faxes
in a forest of trees.
The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain

6And all its hcarved wood
they broke down with hatchets and hammers.
7They iset your sanctuary on fire;
they jprofaned kthe dwelling place of your name,
bringing it down to the ground.
