New King James Version
Psalms 79
1 They have laid Jerusalem in heaps. 2 The flesh of Your saints to the beasts of the earth. 3 And there was no one to bury them. 4 A scorn and derision to those who are around us. 5 Will Your jealousy burn like fire? 6 And on the kingdoms that do not call on Your name. 7 And laid waste his dwelling place. 8 For we have been brought very low. 9 For Your name’s sake! 10 The avenging of the blood of Your servants which has been shed. 11 Preserve those who are appointed to die; 12 Their reproach with which they have reproached You, O Lord. 13 We will show forth Your praise to all generations.
