Psalms 79:5-10 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

5. How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?

6. Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the kingdoms that call not upon thy name.

7. For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his habitation.

8. Remember not against us the iniquities of our forefathers: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.

9. Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake.

10. Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let the revenging of the blood of thy servants which is shed be known among the heathen in our sight.
