Psalms 79:3-7 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

3. Their blood about Jerusalemlike water they have shed;And there was none to bury themwhen they were slain and dead.

4. Unto our neighbours a reproachmost base become are we;A scorn and laughingstock to themthat round about us be.

5. How long, Lord, shall thine anger last?wilt thou still keep the same?And shall thy fervent jealousyburn like unto a flame?

6. On heathen pour thy fury forth,that have thee never known,And on those kingdoms which thy namehave never call'd upon.

7. For these are they who Jacob havedevoured cruelly;And they his habitationhave caused waste to lie.
