1 A Psalm * h4210 of Asaph * h623. O God * h430, the heathen * h1471 are come * h935 h8804 into thine inheritance * h5159; thy holy * h6944 temple * h1964 have they defiled * h2930 h8765; they have laid * h7760 h8804 Jerusalem * h3389 on heaps * h5856. of: or, for
2 The dead bodies * h5038 of thy servants * h5650 have they given * h5414 h8804 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 * h776.
3 Their blood * h1818 have they shed * h8210 h8804 like water * h4325 round about * h5439 Jerusalem * h3389; and there was none to bury * h6912 h8802 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 * h599 h8799 for ever * h5331? shall thy jealousy * h7068 burn * h1197 h8799 like fire * h784?
6 Pour out * h8210 h8798 thy wrath * h2534 upon the heathen * h1471 that have not known * h3045 h8804 thee, and upon the kingdoms * h4467 that have not called * h7121 h8804 upon thy name * h8034.
7 For they have devoured * h398 h8804 Jacob * h3290, and laid waste * h8074 h8689 his dwelling place * h5116.
8 O remember * h2142 h8799 not against us former * h7223 iniquities * h5771: let thy tender mercies * h7356 speedily * h4118 prevent * h6923 h8762 us: for we are brought * h1809 very * h3966 low * h1809 h8804. former...: or, the iniquities of them that were before us
9 Help * h5826 h8798 us, O God * h430 of our salvation * h3468, for * h1697 the glory * h3519 of thy name * h8034: and deliver * h5337 h8685 us, and purge away * h3722 h8761 our sins * h2403, for thy name's * h8034 sake.
10 Wherefore should the heathen * h1471 say * h559 h8799, Where is their God * h430? let him be known * h3045 h8735 among the heathen * h1471 in our sight * h5869 by the revenging * h5360 of the blood * h1818 of thy servants * h5650 which is shed * h8210 h8803. revenging: Heb. vengeance
11 Let the sighing * h603 of the prisoner * h615 come * h935 h8799 before * h6440 thee; according to the greatness * h1433 of thy power * h2220 preserve * h3498 h8685 thou those that are appointed * h1121 to die * h8546; thy...: Heb. thine arm preserve...: Heb. reserve the children of death
12 And render * h7725 h8685 unto our neighbours * h7934 sevenfold * h7659 into their bosom * h2436 their reproach * h2781, wherewith they have reproached * h2778 h8765 thee, O Lord * h136.
13 So we thy people * h5971 and sheep * h6629 of thy pasture * h4830 will give thee thanks * h3034 h8686 for ever * h5769: we will shew forth * h5608 h8762 thy praise * h8416 to all * h1755 generations * h1755. to all...: Heb. to generation and generation
