Psalm 79:7

Faith Amid Confusion

⁶ Pour your fury (anger) on the nations that do not know you, on the kingdoms that have not called you. ⁷ For they have devoured Jacob
And laid waste his habitation.
⁸ Do not hold the crimes of our ancestors against us. Reach out to us soon with your compassion, because we are helpless.
