# Chapter 79
|
||||
1 O God, pagan nations have conquered your land,
|
||||
your special possession.
|
||||
They have defiled your holy Temple
|
||||
and made Jerusalem a heap of ruins.
|
||||
2 They have left the bodies of your servants
|
||||
as food for the birds of heaven.
|
||||
The flesh of your godly ones
|
||||
has become food for the wild animals.
|
||||
3 Blood has flowed like water all around Jerusalem;
|
||||
no one is left to bury the dead.
|
||||
4 We are mocked by our neighbors,
|
||||
an object of scorn and derision to those around us.
|
||||
5 O Lord, how long will you be angry with us? Forever?
|
||||
How long will your jealousy burn like fire?
|
||||
6 Pour out your wrath on the nations that refuse to acknowledge you—
|
||||
on kingdoms that do not call upon your name.
|
||||
7 For they have devoured your people Israel,
|
||||
making the land a desolate wilderness.
|
||||
8 Do not hold us guilty for the sins of our ancestors!
|
||||
Let your compassion quickly meet our needs,
|
||||
for we are on the brink of despair.
|
||||
9 Help us, O God of our salvation!
|
||||
Help us for the glory of your name.
|
||||
Save us and forgive our sins
|
||||
for the honor of your name.
|
||||
10 Why should pagan nations be allowed to scoff,
|
||||
asking, “Where is their God?”
|
||||
Show us your vengeance against the nations,
|
||||
for they have spilled the blood of your servants.
|
||||
11 Listen to the moaning of the prisoners.
|
||||
Demonstrate your great power by saving those condemned to die.
|
||||
12 O Lord, pay back our neighbors seven times
|
||||
for the scorn they have hurled at you.
|
||||
13 Then we your people, the sheep of your pasture,
|
||||
will thank you forever and ever,
|
||||
praising your greatness from generation to generation.
