Psalm 79
Darby Translation
A Psalm of Asaph.
79 O God, the nations are come into thine inheritance: thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem in heaps.
2 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowl of the heavens, 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 mockery and a derision to them that are round about us.
5 How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou be angry for ever? Shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
6 Pour out thy fury upon the nations that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that call not upon thy name:
7 For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his habitation.
8 Remember not against us the iniquities of [our] forefathers; let thy tender mercies speedily come to meet us: for we are brought very low.
9 Help us, O God of our salvation, because of the glory of thy name; and deliver us, and forgive our sins, for thy name's sake.
10 Wherefore should the nations say, Where is their God? Let the avenging of the blood of thy servants that is shed be known among the nations in our sight.
11 Let the groaning of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thine arm, preserve 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 And we, thy people and the sheep of thy pasture, will give thanks unto thee for ever; we will shew forth thy praise from generation to generation.

Dios no abandona a su pueblo
Canción de Asaf.
1 Dios mío, gente de otras naciones
ha invadido tu pueblo.
Destruyeron tu templo sagrado
y dejaron a Jerusalén en ruinas.
2 Han dejado el cuerpo de tus siervos
como alimento para las aves del cielo;
el cuerpo de tu gente fiel
para que lo devoren las fieras.
3 La sangre de los muertos corría como agua
por toda la ciudad de Jerusalén;
no hubo quien enterrara los cuerpos.
4 Ya somos un refrán para los países vecinos;
los que nos rodean se burlan y se ríen de nosotros.
5 SEÑOR, ¿hasta cuándo seguirás enojado con nosotros?
¿En tú ira ardiente seguirás castigándonos para siempre?
6 Muestra toda tu ira a las naciones que no te conocen,
que no adoran tu nombre.
7 Pues ellos fueron los que destruyeron a Jacob,
dejaron en ruinas al país.
8 No nos castigues por los pecados de nuestros antepasados.
Muéstranos tu compasión rápidamente,
porque estamos muy abatidos.
9 ¡Dios y Salvador nuestro, ayúdanos!
Por el prestigio de tu nombre, sálvanos;
por tu propio honor borra nuestros pecados.
10 No dejes que otros pueblos nos digan:
«¿Dónde está su Dios?»
Queremos ver cómo castigas
a los que derraman la sangre de tus siervos.
11 Escucha el lamento de los prisioneros.
Muestra todo tu poder y salva a los condenados a muerte.
12 Señor, haz que la vergüenza que ellos nos hicieron pasar
recaiga sobre ellos siete veces peor.
13 Nosotros somos tu pueblo, las ovejas de tu prado,
y por siempre te alabaremos.
De generación en generación
te cantaremos alabanzas.

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.
