Psalms 79:6-14 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

6. How long wilt thou feed us with the bread of tears: and give us for our drink tears in measure?

7. Thou hast made us to be a contradiction to our neighbours: and our enemies have scoffed at us.

8. O God of hosts, convert us: and shew thy face, and we shall be saved.

9. Thou hast brought a vineyard out of Egypt: thou hast cast cut the Gentiles and planted it.

10. Thou wast the guide of its journey in its sight: thou plantedst the roots thereof, and it filled the land.

11. The shadow of it covered the hills: and the branches thereof the cedars of God.

12. It stretched forth its branches unto the sea, and its boughs unto the river.

13. Why hast thou broken down the hedge thereof, so that all they who pass by the way do pluck it?

14. The boar out of the wood hath laid it waste: and a singular wild beast hath devoured it.
