79A Psalm of Asaph.
O God, the anations have come into bYour inheritance;They have defiled Your choly temple;They have dlaid Jerusalem in ruins.2They have given the adead bodies of Your slaves for food to the birds of the heavens,The flesh of Your holy ones to the beasts of the earth.3They have poured out their blood like water round about Jerusalem;And there was ano one to bury them.4We have become a areproach to our neighbors,A mockery and derision to those around us.
