79

A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. O GodH430, the heathenH1471 are comeH935 into thine inheritanceH5159; thy holyH6944 templeH1964 have they defiledH2930; they have laidH7760 JerusalemH3389 on heapsH5856.2The dead bodiesH5038 of thy servantsH5650 have they givenH5414 to be meatH3978 unto the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064, the fleshH1320 of thy saintsH2623 unto the beastsH2416 of the earthH776.3Their bloodH1818 have they shedH8210 like waterH4325 round aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389; and there was none to buryH6912 them.4We are become a reproachH2781 to our neighboursH7934, a scornH3933 and derisionH7047 to them that are round aboutH5439 us.5How long, LORDH3068? wilt thou be angryH599 for everH5331? shall thy jealousyH7068 burnH1197 like fireH784?6Pour outH8210 thy wrathH2534 upon the heathenH1471 that have not knownH3045 thee, and upon the kingdomsH4467 that have not calledH7121 upon thy nameH8034.7For they have devouredH398 JacobH3290, and laid wasteH8074 his dwelling placeH5116.

8O rememberH2142 not against us formerH7223 iniquitiesH5771: let thy tender merciesH7356 speedilyH4118 preventH6923 us: for we are broughtH1809 veryH3966 lowH1809.9HelpH5826 us, O GodH430 of our salvationH3468, forH1697 the gloryH3519 of thy nameH8034: and deliverH5337 us, and purge awayH3722 our sinsH2403, for thy name'sH8034 sake.10Wherefore should the heathenH1471 sayH559, Where is their GodH430? let him be knownH3045 among the heathenH1471 in our sightH5869 by the revengingH5360 of the bloodH1818 of thy servantsH5650 which is shedH8210.11Let the sighingH603 of the prisonerH615 comeH935 beforeH6440 thee; according to the greatnessH1433 of thy powerH2220 preserveH3498 thou those that are appointedH1121 to dieH8546;12And renderH7725 unto our neighboursH7934 sevenfoldH7659 into their bosomH2436 their reproachH2781, wherewith they have reproachedH2778 thee, O LordH136.

13So we thy peopleH5971 and sheepH6629 of thy pastureH4830 will give thee thanksH3034 for everH5769: we will shew forthH5608 thy praiseH8416 to allH1755 generationsH1755.
