Psalms, Psalm 74,  verses 2, 2-8

2 O God, why have You rejected us forever?
2 Remember Your congregation, which You have purchased of old,
Which You have redeemed to be the tribe of Your inheritance;
And this Mount Zion, where You have dwelt.
3 b Lit Lift upTurn Your footsteps toward the perpetual ruins;
The enemy has damaged everything within the sanctuary.
4 Your adversaries have roared in the midst of Your meeting place;
They have set up their ownc Lit signsstandards for signs.
5 It seems as if one had lifted up
Hisd Lit axesaxe in ae Lit thicketforest of trees.
6 And nowf Lit altogetherall its carved work
They smash with hatchet andg Or axeshammers.
7 They haveh Lit set on fireburned Your sanctuaryi Or To the ground they...to the ground;
They have defiled the dwelling place of Your name.
8 They said in their heart, “Let usj Lit altogethercompletelyk Or oppresssubdue them.”
They have burned all the meeting places of God in the land.
