Chapter 74

1


 

  An Instruction of Asaph. Why, O God, hast Thou cast off for ever? Thine anger smoketh against the flock of Thy pasture.  

 

 

-

2


 

  Remember Thy company. Thou didst purchase of old, Thou didst redeem the rod of Thy inheritance, This mount Zion -- Thou didst dwell in it.  

 

 

-

3


 

  Lift up Thy steps to the perpetual desolations, Everything the enemy did wickedly in the sanctuary.  

 

 

-

4


 

  Roared have thine adversaries, In the midst of Thy meeting-places, They have set their ensigns as ensigns.  

 

 

-

5


 

  He is known as one bringing in on high Against a thicket of wood -- axes.  

 

 

-

6


 

  And now, its carvings together With axe and hatchet they break down,  

 

 

-

7


 

  They have sent into fire Thy sanctuary, to the earth they polluted the tabernacle of Thy name,  

 

 

-

8


 

  They said in their hearts, 'Let us oppress them together,' They did burn all the meeting-places of God in the land.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Our ensigns we have not seen, There is no more a prophet, Nor with us is one knowing how long.  

 

 

-

10


 

  Till when, O God, doth an adversary reproach? Doth an enemy despise thy name for ever?  

 

 

-

11


 

  Why dost Thou turn back Thy hand, Even Thy right hand? From the midst of Thy bosom remove [it].  

 

 

-

12


 

  And God [is] my king of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth.  

 

 

-

13


 

  Thou hast broken by Thy strength a sea-[monster], Thou hast shivered Heads of dragons by the waters,  

 

 

-

14


 

  Thou hast broken the heads of leviathan, Thou makest him food, For the people of the dry places.  

 

 

-

15


 

  Thou hast cleaved a fountain and a stream, Thou hast dried up perennial flowings.  

 

 

-

16


 

  Thine [is] the day, also Thine [is] the night, Thou hast prepared a light giver -- the sun.  

 

 

-

17


 

  Thou hast set up all the borders of earth, Summer and winter Thou hast formed them.  

 

 

-

18


 

  Remember this -- an enemy reproached Jehovah, And a foolish people have despised Thy name.  

 

 

-

19


 

  Give not up to a company, The soul of Thy turtle-dove, The company of Thy poor ones forget not for ever.  

 

 

-

20


 

  Look attentively to the covenant, For the dark places of earth, Have been full of habitations of violence.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Let not the oppressed turn back ashamed, Let the poor and needy praise Thy name,  

 

 

-

22


 

  Arise, O God, plead Thy plea, Remember Thy reproach from a fool all the day.  

 

 

-

23


 

  Forget not the voice of Thine adversaries, The noise of Thy withstanders is going up continually!
