Psalms 79:5-12

5 aHow long, O Lord? Will you be angry bforever?
Will your cjealousy dburn like fire?
6 ePour out your anger on the nations
that fdo not know you,
and on the kingdoms
that gdo not call upon your name!
7For they have devoured Jacob
and laid waste his habitation.
8 hDo not remember against us iour former iniquities;
Or the iniquities of former generations

let your compassion come speedily to meet us,
for we are kbrought very low.
9 lHelp us, O God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and matone for our sins,
for your nname’s sake!
10 oWhy should the nations say,
Where is their God?”
Let pthe avenging of the outpoured blood of your servants
be known among the nations before our eyes!
11 Let qthe groans of the prisoners come before you;
according to your great power, preserve those rdoomed to die!
12Return ssevenfold into the tlap of our neighbors
the utaunts with which they have taunted you, O Lord!
