Psalms 79:3-10 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

3. They have shed their blood As water round about Jerusalem, And there is none burying.

4. We have been a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a derision to our surrounders.

5. Till when, O Jehovah? art Thou angry for ever? Thy jealousy doth burn as fire.

6. Pour Thy fury on the nations who have not known Thee, And on kingdoms that have not called in Thy name.

7. For [one] hath devoured Jacob, And his habitation they have made desolate.

8. Remember not for us the iniquities of forefathers, Haste, let Thy mercies go before us, For we have been very weak.

9. Help us, O God of our salvation, Because of the honour of Thy name, And deliver us, and cover over our sins, For Thy name's sake.

10. Why do the nations say, `Where [is] their God?' Let be known among the nations before our eyes, The vengeance of the blood of Thy servants that is shed.
