MOF PSA Chapter 79

PSA 79 ©

An Asaphite song.

79O God, the pagans have invaded thy preserve,

they have profaned thy sacred shrine,

they have laid Jerusalem in ruins;

2they have flung the corpses of thy servants

to the wild birds as their food,

the flesh of thy followers to wild beasts;

3all round Jerusalem

their blood has been poured out like water,

and there was none to give them burial.


5Eternal One, how long wilt thou be angry?

Is thy passion to burn on for ever,

like a fire, against us?

6Vent thy rage on pagans who disown thee,

on realms that never call to thee,

7who devour Jacob and lay waste his homestead.

8Remember not our fathers’ sins against us;

let thy compassion hasten to our need,

for we are low indeed.


9Help us, O God our saviours,

for the sake of thine own honour,

and cancel thou our sins;

rescue us, as thou art God,

10for why should pagans sneer,

“Where is their God?”

Oh may we live to see

thy vengeance fall on pagans

for spilling the blood of thy servants!


11Oh may the moan of prisoners reach thee,

and by thy mighty power

release those who are doomed to death.

12Pay back our neighbours, Lord,

punish them seven times over for the taunts

that they have heaped on thee.

13Then we thy people, the sheep of thy pasture,

will ever give thee thanks,

and to all ages tell thy praise.
