Psalm 78

Deus, venerunt gentes. The church in time of persecution prayeth for relief. It seems to belong to the time of the Machabees.

⁠
[1]
⁠
A psalm for Asaph. O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.
[2]
⁠
They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be meat for the fowls of the air: the flesh of thy saints for the beasts of the earth.
[3]
⁠
They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem and there was none to bury them.
[4]
⁠
We are become a reproach to our neighbours: a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
[5]
⁠
How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?
⁠
[6]
⁠
Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that have not known thee: and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
[7]
⁠
Because they have devoured Jacob; and have laid waste his place.
[8]
⁠
Remember not our former iniquities: let thy mercies speedily prevent us, for we are become exceeding poor.
[9]
⁠
Help us, O God, our saviour: and for the glory of thy name, O Lord, deliver us: and forgive us our sins for thy name's sake:
[10]
⁠
Lest they should say among the Gentiles: Where is their God? And let him be made known among the nations before our eyes, By the revenging the blood of thy servants, which hath been shed:
⁠
[11]
⁠
Let the sighing of the prisoners come in before thee. According to the greatness of thy arm, take possession of the children of them that have been put to death.
[12]
⁠
And render to our neighbours sevenfold in their bosom: the reproach wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
[13]
⁠
But we thy people, and the sheep of thy pasture, will give thanks to thee for ever. We will shew forth thy praise, unto generation and generation.
