Psalm 79:1-8

English Standard Version

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.
² 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.
³ They have poured out their blood like water
    all around Jerusalem,
    and there was ^(I)no one to bury them.
⁴ We have become ^(J)a taunt to our neighbors,
    ^(K)mocked and derided by those around us.
