Book 19 Psalms Chapter 074
  | |
| 074:001 | O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?   |
| 074:002 | Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.   |
| 074:003 | Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.   |
| 074:004 | Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.   |
| 074:005 | A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.   |
| 074:006 | But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.   |
| 074:007 | They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.   |
| 074:008 | They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.   |
| 074:009 | We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.   |
| 074:010 | O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?   |
| 074:011 | Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom.   |
| 074:012 | For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.   |
| 074:013 | Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.   |
| 074:014 | Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.   |
| 074:015 | Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.   |
| 074:016 | The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.   |
| 074:017 | Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.   |
| 074:018 | Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.   |
| 074:019 | O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.   |
| 074:020 | Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.   |
| 074:021 | O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.   |
| 074:022 | Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.   |
| 074:023 | Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against thee increaseth continually. |
