Psalm 79
A psalm of Asaph.
1 O God, the nations have invaded your inheritance;(A)
they have defiled(B) your holy temple,
they have reduced Jerusalem to rubble.(C)
2 They have left the dead bodies of your servants
as food for the birds of the sky,(D)
the flesh of your own people for the animals of the wild.(E)
3 They have poured out blood like water
all around Jerusalem,
and there is no one to bury(F) the dead.(G)
4 We are objects of contempt to our neighbors,
of scorn(H) and derision to those around us.(I)
5 How long,(J) Lord? Will you be angry(K) forever?
How long will your jealousy burn like fire?(L)
6 Pour out your wrath(M) on the nations
that do not acknowledge(N) you,
on the kingdoms
that do not call on your name;(O)
7 for they have devoured(P) Jacob
and devastated his homeland.
8 Do not hold against us the sins of past generations;(Q)
may your mercy come quickly to meet us,
for we are in desperate need.(R)
9 Help us,(S) God our Savior,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us and forgive our sins
for your name’s sake.(T)
10 Why should the nations say,
“Where is their God?”(U)
Before our eyes, make known among the nations
that you avenge(V) the outpoured blood(W) of your servants.
11 May the groans of the prisoners come before you;
with your strong arm preserve those condemned to die.
12 Pay back into the laps(X) of our neighbors seven times(Y)
the contempt they have hurled at you, Lord.
13 Then we your people, the sheep of your pasture,(Z)
will praise you forever;(AA)
from generation to generation
we will proclaim your praise.
Psalm 79

Psalm 79
King James Version
79 O god, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
2 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
3 Their blood have they shed like 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, Lord? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
6 Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
7 For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
8 O remember not against us former iniquities: 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 him be known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy servants which is shed.
11 Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
12 And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
13 So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.

Salmo de Asafe.
79 Ó Deus, a tua terra foi ocupada por nações pagãs.
Profanaram o teu santo templo;
reduziram-no a um montão de ruínas.
2 Deram os cadáveres dos teus servos
por alimento às aves e aos animais da terra.
3 O seu sangue correu por Jerusalém, como se fosse água,
e nem sequer houve alguém para os enterrar.
4 Tornámo-nos alvo da zombaria dos nossos vizinhos.
5 Até quando, Senhor, ficarás zangado connosco?
Continuará para sempre acesa a tua indignação?
6 Deixa cair a tua cólera sobre as nações pecadoras,
que não te conhecem,
e sobre os povos que não querem invocar o teu nome,
mas não sobre nós.
7 Porque eles destruíram Jacob, o teu povo,
e invadiram as suas moradas.
8 Não te lembres dos nossos pecados passados.
Que a tua profunda compaixão venha depressa
ao encontro das nossas necessidades,
pois estamos muito abatidos.
9 Ajuda-nos, ó Deus, nosso Salvador!
Ajuda-nos pela honra do teu nome!
Livra-nos e perdoa os nossos pecados,
por amor do teu nome!
10 Porque hão de dizer os povos estrangeiros:
“Onde está o Deus deles?”
Senhor, vinga publicamente o extermínio do teu povo.
11 Ouve o suspiro dos presos e dos condenados à morte,
segundo a grandeza do teu poder.
12 Vinga-te sete vezes das nações vizinhas
que te injuriaram e ofenderam, Senhor.
13 E assim nós, o teu povo, as tuas ovelhas,
te louvaremos para sempre, de geração em geração.
