Psalmes 79

1 The psalmist complaineth of the desolation of Jerusalem. 8 He prayeth for deliverance, 13 and promiseth thankfulness.

 79:1 ¶ [[A psalme 4210 of Asaph.]] 623 O God, 430 the heathen 1471 are come 935 z8804 into thine, inheritance, 5159 x853 thy holy 6944 temple 1964 haue they defiled: 2930 z8765 they haue layd 7760 z8804 x853 Ierusalem 3389 on heapes. 5856

 79:2 x853 The dead bodies 5038 of thy seruants 5650 haue they giuen 5414 z8804 [to bee] meate 3978 vnto the foules 5775 of the heauen: 8064 the flesh 1320 of thy Saints 2623 vnto the beasts 2416 of the earth. 776

 79:3 Their blood 1818 haue they shed 8210 z8804 like water 4325 round about 5439 Ierusalem: 3389 and [there was] none x369 to burie 6912 z8802 [them].

 79:4 We are become x1961 a reproach 2781 to our neighbours: 7934 a scorne 3933 and derision 7047 to them that are round about 5439 vs.

 79:5 How long, x5704 x4100 LORD, 3068 wilt thou be angry, 599 z8799 for euer? 5331 shall thy ielousie 7068 burne 1197 z8799 like x3644 fire? 784

 79:6 Powre out 8210 z8798 thy wrath 2534 vpon x413 the heathen 1471 that x834 haue not x3808 knowen 3045 z8804 thee, and vpon x5921 the kingdomes 4467 that x834 haue not x408 called 7121 z8804 vpon thy name. 8034

 79:7 For x3588 they haue deuoured 398 z8804 x853 Iacob: 3290 and laid waste 8074 z8689 his dwelling place. 5116

 79:8 O remember 2142 z8799 not x408 against vs former 7223 iniquities, 5771 let thy tender mercies 7356 speedily y4118 x4116 preuent 6923 z8762 vs: for x3588 we are brought y1809 z0 very y3966 low. 1809 z8804 x3966

 79:9 Helpe 5826 z8798 vs, O God 430 of our saluation, 3468 for 1697 x5921 the glory 3519 of thy Name: 8034 and deliuer 5337 z8685 vs, and purge away 3722 z8761 x5921 our sinnes 2403 for thy Names y8034 sake. x4616 x8034

 79:10 Wherfore x4100 should the heathen 1471 say, 559 z8799 Where x346 [is] their God? 430 let him be knowen 3045 z8735 among the heathen 1471 in our sight 5869 [by] the reuenging 5360 of the blood 1818 of thy seruants 5650 which is shed. 8210 z8803

 79:11 Let the sighing 603 of the prisoner 615 come 935 z8799 before 6440 thee, according to the greatnesse 1433 of thy power: 2220 preserue 3498 z8685 thou those that are appointed 1121 to die. 8546

 79:12 And render 7725 z8685 vnto our neighbours 7934 seuen fold 7659 into x413 their bosome, 2436 their reproach 2781 wherewith x834 they haue reproched 2778 z8765 thee, O Lord. 136

 79:13 So we x587 thy people 5971 and sheepe 6629 of thy pasture, 4830 will giue thee thankes 3034 z8686 for euer: 5769 we will shew forth 5608 z8762 thy praise 8416 to all y1755 generations. 1755
