Arise, O God, Defend Your Cause

A Maskil[a] of (A)Asaph.

74 O God, why do you (B)cast us off forever?
    Why does your anger (C)smoke against (D)the sheep of your pasture?
(E)Remember your congregation, which you have (F)purchased of old,
    which you have (G)redeemed to be (H)the tribe of your heritage!
    Remember Mount Zion, (I)where you have dwelt.
Direct your steps to (J)the perpetual ruins;
    the enemy has destroyed everything in the sanctuary!

Your foes have (K)roared in the midst of your meeting place;
    (L)they set up their (M)own signs for (N)signs.
They were like those who swing (O)axes
    in a forest of trees.[b]
And all its (P)carved wood
    they broke down with hatchets and hammers.
They (Q)set your sanctuary on fire;
    they (R)profaned (S)the dwelling place of your name,
    bringing it down to the ground.
They (T)said to themselves, “We will utterly subdue them”;
    they burned all the meeting places of God in the land.

We do not see our (U)signs;
    (V)there is no longer any prophet,
    and there is none among us who knows how long.
10 How long, O God, (W)is the foe to scoff?
    Is the enemy to revile your name forever?
11 Why (X)do you hold back your hand, your right hand?
    Take it from the fold of your garment[c] and destroy them!

12 Yet (Y)God my King is from of old,
    working salvation in the midst of the earth.
13 You (Z)divided the sea by your might;
    you (AA)broke the heads of (AB)the sea monsters[d] on the waters.
14 You crushed the heads of (AC)Leviathan;
    you gave him as food for the creatures of the wilderness.
15 You (AD)split open springs and brooks;
    you (AE)dried up ever-flowing streams.
16 Yours is the day, yours also the night;
    you have established (AF)the heavenly lights and the sun.
17 You have (AG)fixed all the boundaries of the earth;
    you have made (AH)summer and winter.

18 (AI)Remember this, O Lord, how the enemy scoffs,
    and (AJ)a foolish people reviles your name.
19 Do not deliver the soul of your (AK)dove to the wild beasts;
    (AL)do not forget the life of your poor forever.

20 Have regard for (AM)the covenant,
    for (AN)the dark places of the land are full of the habitations of violence.
21 Let not (AO)the downtrodden (AP)turn back in shame;
    let (AQ)the poor and needy praise your name.

22 Arise, O God, (AR)defend your cause;
    (AS)remember how the foolish scoff at you all the day!
23 Do not forget the clamor of your foes,
    (AT)the uproar of those who rise against you, which goes up continually!

How Long, O Lord?

A Psalm of (A)Asaph.

79 O God, (B)the nations have come into your (C)inheritance;
    they have defiled your (D)holy temple;
    they have (E)laid Jerusalem in ruins.
They have given (F)the bodies of your servants
    to the birds of the heavens for food,
    the flesh of your (G)faithful to (H)the beasts of the earth.
They have poured out their blood like water
    all around Jerusalem,
    and there was (I)no one to bury them.
We have become (J)a taunt to our neighbors,
    (K)mocked and derided by those around us.

(L)How long, O Lord? Will you be angry (M)forever?
    Will your (N)jealousy (O)burn like fire?
(P)Pour out your anger on the nations
    that (Q)do not know you,
and on the kingdoms
    that (R)do not call upon your name!
For they have devoured Jacob
    and laid waste his habitation.

(S)Do not remember against us (T)our former iniquities;[a]
    let your compassion come speedily to meet us,
    for we are (U)brought very low.
(V)Help us, O God of our salvation,
    for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and (W)atone for our sins,
    for your (X)name's sake!
10 (Y)Why should the nations say,
    “Where is their God?”
Let (Z)the avenging of the outpoured blood of your servants
    be known among the nations before our eyes!

11 Let (AA)the groans of the prisoners come before you;
    according to your great power, preserve those (AB)doomed to die!
12 Return (AC)sevenfold into the (AD)lap of our neighbors
    the (AE)taunts with which they have taunted you, O Lord!
13 But we your people, the (AF)sheep of your pasture,
    will (AG)give thanks to you forever;
    from generation to generation we will recount your praise.

Revive Us Again

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of (A)the Sons of Korah.

85 Lord, you were (B)favorable to your land;
    you (C)restored the fortunes of Jacob.
You (D)forgave the iniquity of your people;
    you (E)covered all their sin. Selah
You withdrew all your wrath;
    you (F)turned from your hot anger.

(G)Restore us again, O God of our salvation,
    and put away your indignation toward us!
(H)Will you be angry with us forever?
    Will you prolong your anger to all generations?
Will you not (I)revive us again,
    that your people may (J)rejoice in you?
Show us your steadfast love, O Lord,
    and grant us your salvation.

(K)Let me hear what God the Lord will speak,
    for he will (L)speak peace to his people, to his (M)saints;
    but let them not (N)turn back to (O)folly.
Surely his (P)salvation is near to those who fear him,
    that (Q)glory may dwell in our land.

10 (R)Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;
    (S)righteousness and peace kiss each other.
11 Faithfulness springs up from the ground,
    and righteousness looks down from the sky.
12 Yes, (T)the Lord will give what is good,
    and our land (U)will yield its increase.
13 (V)Righteousness will go before him
    and make his footsteps a way.

Do Not Hide Your Face from Me

A Prayer of one afflicted, when he is (A)faint and (B)pours out his complaint before the Lord.

102 (C)Hear my prayer, O Lord;
let my cry (D)come to you!
(E)Do not hide your face from me
    in (F)the day of my distress!
(G)Incline your ear to me;
    (H)answer me speedily (I)in the day when I call!

For my days (J)pass away like smoke,
    and my (K)bones burn like a furnace.
My heart is (L)struck down like grass and (M)has withered;
    I (N)forget to eat my bread.
Because of my loud groaning
    my (O)bones cling to my flesh.
I am like (P)a desert owl of the wilderness,
    like an owl[a] of the waste places;
I (Q)lie awake;
    I am like a lonely sparrow on the housetop.
All the day my enemies taunt me;
    those who (R)deride me (S)use my name for a curse.
For I eat ashes like bread
    and (T)mingle tears with my drink,
10 because of your indignation and anger;
    for you have (U)taken me up and (V)thrown me down.
11 My days are like (W)an evening shadow;
    I (X)wither away like grass.

12 But you, O Lord, are (Y)enthroned forever;
    you (Z)are remembered throughout all generations.
13 You will (AA)arise and have (AB)pity on Zion;
    it is the time to favor her;
    (AC)the appointed time has come.
14 For your servants hold her (AD)stones dear
    and have pity on her dust.
15 Nations will (AE)fear the name of the Lord,
    and all (AF)the kings of the earth will fear your glory.
16 For the Lord (AG)builds up Zion;
    he (AH)appears in his glory;
17 he (AI)regards the prayer of the destitute
    and does not despise their prayer.

18 Let this be (AJ)recorded for (AK)a generation to come,
    so that (AL)a people yet to be created may praise the Lord:
19 that he (AM)looked down from his holy height;
    from heaven the Lord looked at the earth,
20 to hear (AN)the groans of the prisoners,
    to set free (AO)those who were doomed to die,
21 that they may (AP)declare in Zion the name of the Lord,
    and in Jerusalem his praise,
22 when (AQ)peoples gather together,
    and kingdoms, to worship the Lord.

23 He has broken my strength in midcourse;
    he (AR)has shortened my days.
24 “O my God,” (AS)I say, “take me not away
    in the midst of my days—
(AT)you whose years endure
    throughout all generations!”

25 (AU)Of old you laid the foundation of the earth,
    and (AV)the heavens are the work of your hands.
26 (AW)They will perish, but (AX)you will remain;
    they will all wear out like a garment.
You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away,
27     but (AY)you are the same, and your years have no end.
28 (AZ)The children of your servants (BA)shall dwell secure;
    (BB)their offspring shall be established before you.

Deliver Me, O Lord

A Song of (A)Ascents.

120 In my distress I called to the Lord,
    and he answered me.
Deliver me, O Lord,
    from lying lips,
    from a deceitful tongue.

What shall be given to you,
    (B)and what more shall be done to you,
    you deceitful tongue?
(C)A warrior's (D)sharp arrows,
    with glowing (E)coals of the broom tree!

Woe to me, that I sojourn in (F)Meshech,
    that I dwell among (G)the tents of (H)Kedar!
Too long have I had my dwelling
    among those who hate peace.
(I)I am for peace,
    but when I speak, they are for war!

How Shall We Sing the Lord's Song?

137 By the waters of Babylon,
    there we sat down and wept,
    when we remembered Zion.
On the willows[a] there
    we hung up our lyres.
For there our captors
    required of us songs,
and our tormentors, mirth, saying,
    “Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”

(A)How shall we sing the Lord's song
    in a foreign land?
If I forget you, O Jerusalem,
    (B)let my right hand forget its skill!
Let my (C)tongue stick to the roof of my mouth,
    if I do not remember you,
if I do not set Jerusalem
    above my highest joy!

Remember, O Lord, against the (D)Edomites
    (E)the day of Jerusalem,
how they said, (F)“Lay it bare, lay it bare,
    down to its foundations!”
O daughter of Babylon, (G)doomed to be destroyed,
    blessed shall he be who (H)repays you
    with what you have done to us!
Blessed shall he be who takes your little ones
    and (I)dashes them against the rock!

How Lonely Sits the City

(A)How lonely sits the city
    that was full of people!
How like (B)a widow has she become,
    she who was great among the nations!
She who was (C)a princess among the provinces
    has become (D)a slave.

(E)She weeps bitterly in the night,
    with tears on her cheeks;
(F)among all her lovers
    she has (G)none to comfort her;
(H)all her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
    they have become her enemies.

(I)Judah has gone into exile because of affliction[a]
    and hard servitude;
(J)she dwells now among the nations,
    (K)but finds no resting place;
her pursuers have all overtaken her
    in the midst of her distress.[b]

The roads to Zion mourn,
    for none come to (L)the festival;
(M)all her gates are desolate;
    her priests (N)groan;
her virgins have been afflicted,[c]
    and she herself suffers bitterly.

(O)Her foes have become the head;
    her (P)enemies prosper,
because (Q)the Lord has afflicted her
    (R)for the multitude of her transgressions;
(S)her children have gone away,
    captives before the foe.

From the daughter of Zion
    all her majesty has departed.
Her princes have become like deer
    (T)that find no pasture;
they fled without strength
    before the pursuer.

Jerusalem remembers
    in the days of her affliction and wandering
(U)all the precious things
    that were hers from (V)days of old.
When her people fell into the hand of the foe,
    and there was none to help her,
her foes gloated over her;
    they (W)mocked at her downfall.

(X)Jerusalem sinned grievously;
    therefore she became filthy;
all who honored her despise her,
    (Y)for they have seen her nakedness;
she herself (Z)groans
    and turns her face away.

Her uncleanness was (AA)in her skirts;
    (AB)she took no thought of her future;[d]
therefore her fall is terrible;
    (AC)she has no comforter.
“O Lord, behold my affliction,
    for the enemy has (AD)triumphed!”

10 The enemy has stretched out his hands
    over all her (AE)precious things;
for she has seen (AF)the nations
    enter her sanctuary,
those whom you (AG)forbade
    to enter your congregation.

11 All her people (AH)groan
    as (AI)they search for bread;
they trade their (AJ)treasures for (AK)food
    to revive their strength.
“Look, O Lord, and see,
    for I am despised.”

12 “Is it nothing to you, all (AL)you who pass by?
    (AM)Look and see
if there is any sorrow like my sorrow,
    which was brought upon me,
which (AN)the Lord inflicted
    on (AO)the day of his fierce anger.

13 “From on high he (AP)sent fire;
    into my bones[e] he made it descend;
(AQ)he spread a net for my feet;
    he turned me back;
(AR)he has left me stunned,
    faint all the day long.

14 “My transgressions were bound[f] into (AS)a yoke;
    by his hand they were fastened together;
they were set upon my neck;
    he caused my strength to fail;
the Lord gave me into the hands
    of those whom I cannot withstand.

15 “The Lord rejected
    all my mighty men in my midst;
he summoned an assembly against me
    to crush my young men;
(AT)the Lord has trodden as in a winepress
    the virgin daughter of Judah.

16 “For these things (AU)I weep;
    my eyes flow with tears;
for (AV)a comforter is far from me,
    one to (AW)revive my spirit;
my children are desolate,
    for the enemy has prevailed.”

17 (AX)Zion stretches out her hands,
    but (AY)there is none to comfort her;
the Lord has commanded against Jacob
    that his neighbors should be his foes;
Jerusalem has become
    a filthy thing among them.

18 (AZ)“The Lord is in the right,
    (BA)for I have rebelled against his word;
but hear, all you peoples,
    and see my suffering;
(BB)my young women and my young men
    have gone into captivity.

19 “I called to (BC)my lovers,
    but they deceived me;
my priests and elders
    perished in the city,
while (BD)they sought food
    to revive their strength.

20 “Look, O Lord, for I am in distress;
    (BE)my stomach churns;
my heart is wrung within me,
    because I have been very rebellious.
(BF)In the street the sword bereaves;
    in the house it is like death.

21 “They heard[g] (BG)my groaning,
    yet (BH)there is no one to comfort me.
All my enemies have heard of my trouble;
    (BI)they are glad that you have done it.
You have brought[h] the day you announced;
    (BJ)now let them be as I am.

22 (BK)“Let all their evildoing come before you,
    and deal with them
as (BL)you have dealt with me
    because of all my transgressions;
for (BM)my groans are many,
    and (BN)my heart is faint.”

The Lord Has Destroyed Without Pity

How the Lord in his anger
    has set the daughter of Zion (BO)under a cloud!
(BP)He has cast down from heaven to earth
    the splendor of Israel;
he has not remembered (BQ)his footstool
    in the day of his anger.

The Lord (BR)has swallowed up (BS)without mercy
    all the habitations of Jacob;
in his wrath (BT)he has broken down
    the strongholds of the daughter of Judah;
he has brought (BU)down to the ground (BV)in dishonor
    the kingdom (BW)and its rulers.

He has cut down in (BX)fierce anger
    all (BY)the might of Israel;
(BZ)he has withdrawn from them his right hand
    in the face of the enemy;
(CA)he has burned like a flaming fire in Jacob,
    consuming all around.

(CB)He has bent his bow like an enemy,
    with his right hand set (CC)like a foe;
and he has killed all who were delightful in our eyes
    in the tent of the daughter of Zion;
he has poured out his fury like fire.

(CD)The Lord has become like an enemy;
    (CE)he has swallowed up Israel;
(CF)he has swallowed up all its palaces;
    he has laid in ruins its strongholds,
and he has multiplied in the daughter of Judah
    (CG)mourning and lamentation.

He has laid waste his booth like a garden,
    laid in ruins (CH)his meeting place;
(CI)the Lord has made Zion forget
    festival and (CJ)Sabbath,
and in his fierce indignation has spurned king and priest.

(CK)The Lord has scorned his altar,
    (CL)disowned his sanctuary;
(CM)he has delivered into the hand of the enemy
    the walls of her palaces;
(CN)they raised a clamor in the house of the Lord
    as on the day of festival.

(CO)The Lord determined to lay in ruins
    (CP)the wall of the daughter of Zion;
(CQ)he stretched out the measuring line;
    he did not restrain his hand from destroying;
(CR)he caused rampart and wall to lament;
    (CS)they languished together.

Her gates have sunk into the ground;
    (CT)he has ruined (CU)and broken her bars;
(CV)her king and princes are among the nations;
    the law is no more,
and (CW)her prophets find
    no vision from the Lord.

10 The elders of the daughter of Zion
    (CX)sit on the ground (CY)in silence;
(CZ)they have thrown dust on their heads
    and (DA)put on sackcloth;
the young women of Jerusalem
    have bowed their heads to the ground.

11 (DB)My eyes are spent with weeping;
    (DC)my stomach churns;
(DD)my bile is poured out to the ground
    (DE)because of the destruction of the daughter of my people,
(DF)because infants and babies (DG)faint
    in the streets of the city.

12 They cry to their mothers,
    (DH)“Where is bread and wine?”
(DI)as they faint like a wounded man
    in the streets of the city,
as their life is poured out
    on their mothers' bosom.

13 What can I say for you, (DJ)to what compare you,
    O daughter of Jerusalem?
(DK)What can I liken to you, that I may comfort you,
    O virgin daughter of Zion?
(DL)For your ruin is vast as the sea;
    who can heal you?

14 (DM)Your prophets have seen for you
    false and deceptive visions;
(DN)they have not exposed your iniquity
    to (DO)restore your fortunes,
(DP)but have seen for you (DQ)oracles
    that are false and misleading.

15 All who pass along the way
    clap their hands at you;
(DR)they hiss and wag their heads
    at the daughter of Jerusalem:
“Is this the city that was called
    (DS)the perfection of beauty,
    (DT)the joy of all the earth?”

16 (DU)All your enemies
    rail against you;
they hiss, they gnash their teeth,
    they cry: “We (DV)have swallowed her!
Ah, this is the day we longed for;
    now we have it; (DW)we see it!”

17 The Lord has done what he purposed;
    he has carried out (DX)his word,
which he commanded (DY)long ago;
    (DZ)he has thrown down (EA)without pity;
(EB)he has made the enemy rejoice over you
    and exalted the (EC)might of your foes.

18 Their heart cried to the Lord.
    O (ED)wall of the daughter of Zion,
(EE)let tears stream down like a torrent
    (EF)day and night!
(EG)Give yourself no rest,
    (EH)your eyes no respite!

19 “Arise, (EI)cry out in the night,
    at the beginning of the night watches!
(EJ)Pour out your heart like water
    before the presence of the Lord!
(EK)Lift your hands to him
    for the lives of your children,
(EL)who faint for hunger
    at the head of every street.”

20 Look, O Lord, and see!
    (EM)With whom have you dealt thus?
(EN)Should women eat the fruit of their womb,
    the children of (EO)their tender care?
Should (EP)priest and prophet be killed
    in the sanctuary of the Lord?

21 In the dust of the streets
    (EQ)lie the young and the old;
(ER)my young women and my young men
    have fallen by the sword;
(ES)you have killed them in the day of your anger,
    slaughtering (ET)without pity.

22 You summoned as if to (EU)a festival day
    (EV)my terrors on every side,
(EW)and on the day of the anger of the Lord
    no one escaped or survived;
(EX)those whom I held and raised
    my enemy destroyed.

Great Is Your Faithfulness

(EY)I am the man who has seen affliction
    under the (EZ)rod of his wrath;
he has driven and brought me
    (FA)into darkness without any light;
surely against me he turns his hand
    again and again the whole day long.

He has made my flesh and my skin waste away;
    (FB)he has broken my bones;
(FC)he has besieged and enveloped me
    with (FD)bitterness and tribulation;
(FE)he has made me dwell in darkness
    like the dead of long ago.

(FF)He has walled me about so that (FG)I cannot escape;
    he has made my chains heavy;
though (FH)I call and cry for help,
    he shuts out my prayer;
(FI)he has blocked my ways with blocks of stones;
    he has made my paths crooked.

10 (FJ)He is a bear lying in wait for me,
    a lion in hiding;
11 (FK)he turned aside my steps and (FL)tore me to pieces;
    (FM)he has made me desolate;
12 (FN)he bent his bow (FO)and set me
    as a target for his arrow.

13 He drove into my kidneys
    (FP)the arrows of his quiver;
14 (FQ)I have become the laughingstock of all peoples,
    (FR)the object of their taunts all day long.
15 (FS)He has filled me with bitterness;
    he has sated me with (FT)wormwood.

16 (FU)He has made my teeth grind on gravel,
    and (FV)made me cower in ashes;
17 my soul is bereft of peace;
    I have forgotten what happiness[i] is;
18 (FW)so I say, “My endurance has perished;
    so has my hope from the Lord.”

19 (FX)Remember my affliction and my wanderings,
    (FY)the wormwood and (FZ)the gall!
20 My soul continually remembers it
    (GA)and is bowed down within me.
21 But this I call to mind,
    and (GB)therefore I have hope:

22 (GC)The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;[j]
    (GD)his mercies never come to an end;
23 they are new (GE)every morning;
    (GF)great is your faithfulness.
24 (GG)“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,
    (GH)“therefore I will hope in him.”

25 The Lord is good to those who (GI)wait for him,
    to the soul who seeks him.
26 (GJ)It is good that one should wait quietly
    for the salvation of the Lord.
27 (GK)It is good for a man that he bear
    the yoke (GL)in his youth.

28 Let him (GM)sit alone in silence
    when it is laid on him;
29 (GN)let him put his mouth in the dust—
    there may yet be hope;
30 (GO)let him give his cheek to the one who strikes,
    and let him be filled with insults.

31 (GP)For the Lord will not
    cast off forever,
32 but, though he (GQ)cause grief, (GR)he will have compassion
    (GS)according to the abundance of his steadfast love;
33 (GT)for he does not afflict from his heart
    or (GU)grieve the children of men.

34 To crush underfoot
    all (GV)the prisoners of the earth,
35 (GW)to deny a man justice
    in the presence of the Most High,
36 to subvert a man in his lawsuit,
    (GX)the Lord does not approve.

37 (GY)Who has spoken and it came to pass,
    unless the Lord has commanded it?
38 (GZ)Is it not from the mouth of the Most High
    that good and bad come?
39 (HA)Why should a living man complain,
    a man, about the punishment of his sins?

40 Let us test and examine our ways,
    (HB)and return to the Lord!
41 (HC)Let us lift up our hearts and hands
    to God in heaven:
42 (HD)“We have transgressed and (HE)rebelled,
    and you have not forgiven.

43 “You have wrapped yourself with anger and pursued us,
    (HF)killing without pity;
44 (HG)you have wrapped yourself with a cloud
    so that no prayer can pass through.
45 (HH)You have made us scum and garbage
    among the peoples.

46 (HI)“All our enemies
    open their mouths against us;
47 (HJ)panic and pitfall have come upon us,
    devastation and (HK)destruction;
48 (HL)my eyes flow with rivers of tears
    because of the destruction of the daughter of my people.

49 (HM)“My eyes will flow without ceasing,
    without respite,
50 (HN)until the Lord from heaven
    looks down and sees;
51 my eyes cause me grief
    at the fate of all the daughters of my city.

52 (HO)“I have been hunted (HP)like a bird
    by those who were my enemies (HQ)without cause;
53 (HR)they flung me alive into the pit
    (HS)and cast stones on me;
54 (HT)water closed over my head;
    I said, (HU)‘I am lost.’

55 (HV)“I called on your name, O Lord,
    from the depths of the pit;
56 (HW)you heard my plea, ‘Do not close
    your ear to my cry for help!’
57 (HX)You came near when I called on you;
    you said, (HY)‘Do not fear!’

58 “You have (HZ)taken up my cause, (IA)O Lord;
    you have (IB)redeemed my life.
59 You have seen the wrong done to me, (IC)O Lord;
    judge my cause.
60 You have seen all their vengeance,
    all (ID)their plots against me.

61 (IE)“You have heard their taunts, O Lord,
    all (IF)their plots against me.
62 The lips and thoughts (IG)of my assailants
    are against me all the day long.
63 (IH)Behold their sitting and their rising;
    (II)I am the object of their taunts.

64 (IJ)“You will repay them,[k] O Lord,
    (IK)according to the work of their hands.
65 You will give them[l] dullness of heart;
    your curse will be[m] on them.
66 You will pursue them[n] in anger and (IL)destroy them
    from under (IM)your heavens, O Lord.”[o]
