They Have Laid Jerusalem On Heaps |
||
| A Psalm of Asaph. |
||
| 1 | O God, the heathen
are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled;
they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
|
H · G · S the heathen are come |
| 2 | The dead bodies of
thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls of the
heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
|
H · G · S |
| 3 | Their blood have they
shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there was none to
bury them.
|
H · G · S |
| 4 | We are become a reproach to our neighbours,
a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
|
H · G · S |
| 5 | How long, LORD? wilt
thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
|
H · G · S |
| 6 | Pour out thy wrath
upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that
have not called upon thy name.
|
H · G · S |
| 7 | For they have
devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
|
H · G · S |
| 8 | O remember not
against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent
us: for we are brought very low.
|
H · G · S |
| 9 | Help us, O God of our
salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away
our sins, for thy name's sake.
|
H · G · S |
| 10 | Wherefore should the
heathen say, Where is their God? let him be known among the
heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy servants which
is shed.
|
H · G · S |
| 11 | Let the sighing of
the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power
preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
|
H · G · S |
| 12 | And render unto our
neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they
have reproached thee, O Lord.
|
H · G · S |
| 13 | So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations. | H · G · S to all generations |
