<A Psalm <H4210> of Asaph.> <H0623> O God, <H0430> the heathen <H1471> are come <H0935> into thine inheritance; <H5159> thy holy <H6944> temple <H1964> have they defiled; <H2930> they have laid <H7760> Jerusalem <H3389> on heaps. <H5856>
2
The dead bodies <H5038> of thy servants <H5650> have they given <H5414> [to be] meat <H3978> unto the fowls <H5775> of the heaven, <H8064> the flesh <H1320> of thy saints <H2623> unto the beasts <H2416> of the earth. <H0776>
3
Their blood <H1818> have they shed <H8210> like water <H4325> round about <H5439> Jerusalem; <H3389> and [there was] none to bury <H6912> [them].
4
We are become a reproach <H2781> to our neighbours, <H7934> a scorn <H3933> and derision <H7047> to them that are round about <H5439> us.
5
How long, LORD? <H3068> wilt thou be angry <H0599> for ever? <H5331> shall thy jealousy <H7068> burn <H1197> like fire? <H0784>
6
Pour out <H8210> thy wrath <H2534> upon the heathen <H1471> that have not known <H3045> thee, and upon the kingdoms <H4467> that have not called <H7121> upon thy name. <H8034>
7
For they have devoured <H0398> Jacob, <H3290> and laid waste <H8074> his dwelling place. <H5116>
8
O remember <H2142> not against us former <H7223> iniquities: <H5771> let thy tender mercies <H7356> speedily <H4118> prevent <H6923> us: for we are brought very <H3966> low. <H1809>
9
Help <H5826> us, O God <H0430> of our salvation, <H3468> for <H1697> the glory <H3519> of thy name: <H8034> and deliver <H5337> us, and purge away <H3722> our sins, <H2403> for thy name's <H8034> sake.
10
Wherefore should the heathen <H1471> say, <H0559> Where [is] their God? <H0430> let him be known <H3045> among the heathen <H1471> in our sight <H5869> [by] the revenging <H5360> of the blood <H1818> of thy servants <H5650> [which is] shed. <H8210>
11
Let the sighing <H0603> of the prisoner <H0615> come <H0935> before <H6440> thee; according to the greatness <H1433> of thy power <H2220> preserve <H3498> thou those that are appointed <H1121> to die; <H8546>
12
And render <H7725> unto our neighbours <H7934> sevenfold <H7659> into their bosom <H2436> their reproach, <H2781> wherewith they have reproached <H2778> thee, O Lord. <H0136>
13
So we thy people <H5971> and sheep <H6629> of thy pasture <H4830> will give thee thanks <H3034> for ever: <H5769> we will shew forth <H5608> thy praise <H8416> to all <H1755> generations. <H1755>
