A Prayer for the Nation

74 O God, why have You turned away from us forever? Why does Your anger burn against the sheep in Your fields? Remember Your people that You bought a long time ago. You made them free to be the family of Your promise, and Mount Zion, where You have lived. Turn Your steps toward this place that has been destroyed forever. Those who hate You have destroyed all that is in the holy place. Those who hate You have called out in the center of Your meeting place. They have set up their flags to show that they have won. They acted like men taking up axes against a group of trees. All of its fine work has been broken with axes and sticks. They have burned Your holy place to the dust. They have made dirty the house of Your name. They said in their hearts, “Let us destroy all of these places!” They have burned all the meeting places where God was worshiped in the land. We do not see any special things happening. There is no longer anyone who speaks for God. And none of us knows how long this will be. 10 O God, how long will those who hate You laugh at the truth? Will they speak against Your name forever? 11 Why do You take Your hand away, even Your right hand? Put it out and destroy them!
