   Psalms 79   
   [1] 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.   
      
   Psalms 80   
   [1] Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock;   
   thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth. [2] Before Ephraim and   
   Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us.   
   [3] Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.   
   [4] O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy   
   people?   
   [5] Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink   
   in great measure.   
   [6] Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among   
   themselves.   
   [7] Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall   
   be saved.   
   [8] Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and   
   planted it.   
   [9] Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and   
   it filled the land.   
   [10] The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were   
   like the goodly cedars.   
   [11] She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.   
   [12] Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by   
   the way do pluck her?   
   [13] The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field   
   doth devour it.   
   [14] Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and   
   behold, and visit this vine;   
   [15] And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that   
   thou madest strong for thyself.   
   [16] It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy   
   countenance.   
   [17] Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom   
   thou madest strong for thyself. [18] So will not we go back from thee: quicken   
   us, and we will call upon thy name.   
   [19] Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall   
   be saved.   
      
   Psalms 81   
   [1] Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of   
   Jacob.   
   [2] Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the   
   psaltery.   
   [3] Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn   
   feast day.   
   [4] For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob. [5] This   
   he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of   
   Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not. [6] I removed his   
   shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.   
   [7] Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the   
   secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah. [8]   
   Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt   
   hearken unto me;   
   [9] There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any   
   strange god.   
   [10] I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open   
   thy mouth wide, and I will fill it. [11] But my people would not hearken to my   
   voice; and Israel would none of me.   
   [12] So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their   
   own counsels.   
   [13] Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!   
   [14] I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against   
   their adversaries.   
   [15] The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but   
   their time should have endured for ever. [16] He should have fed them also   
   with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have   
   satisfied thee.
