Psalm 79:2

Faith Amid Confusion

¹ A Psalm of Asaph.
O God, the nations have invaded Your inheritance;
They have defiled Your holy temple;
They have laid Jerusalem in ruins.
² They have given the dead bodies of Your servants for food to the birds of the heavens,
The flesh of Your godly ones to the beasts of the earth.
³ They have poured out their blood like water round about Jerusalem;
And there was no one to bury them.
