< Psalms 74 >

1 [A Psalm] of instruction for Asaph. Therefore have you rejected [us], O God, for ever? [therefore] is your wrath kindled against the sheep of your pasture?
A poem of Asaph why? O God have you rejected [us] to perpetuity does it smoke? anger your on [the] sheep of pasture your.
2 Remember your congregation which you have purchased from the beginning; you did ransom the rod of your inheritance; this mount Sion wherein you have lived.
Remember congregation your - [which] you acquired antiquity [which] you redeemed [the] tribe of inheritance your [the] mountain of Zion which - you have dwelt on it.
3 Lift up your hands against their pride continually; [because of] all that the enemy has done wickedly in your holy places.
Lift up! footsteps your to [the] ruins of perpetuity everything he has done harm to [the] enemy in the sanctuary.
4 And they that hate you have boasted in the midst of your feast; they have set up their standards for signs,
They roared opposers your in [the] midst of appointed place your they set up signs their signs.
5 ignorantly as it were in the entrance above;
It was known like [one who] brings upwards in a thicket of tree[s] axes.
6 they cut down its doors at once with axes as in a wood of trees; they have broken it down with hatchet and stone cutter.
(And now *Q(K)*) engravings its altogether with axe[s] and crowbars they struck!
7 They have burnt your sanctuary with fire to the ground; they have profaned the habitation of your name.
They sent in fire sanctuary your to the ground they profaned [the] dwelling place of name your.
8 They have said in their heart, [even] all their kindred together, Come, let us abolish the feasts of the Lord from the earth.
They said in heart their let us oppress them altogether they burned all [the] appointed places of God in the land.
9 We have not seen our signs; there is no longer a prophet; and [God] will not know us any more.
Signs our not we have seen there not still [is] a prophet and not [is] with us [one who] knows until when?
10 How long, O God, shall the enemy reproach? shall the enemy provoke your name forever?
Until when? O God will he taunt [the] opponent will he spurn? [the] enemy name your to perpetuity.
11 Therefore turn you away your hand, and your right hand from the midst of your bosom for ever?
Why? do you draw back hand your and right [hand] your from [the] midst of (bosom your *Q(K)*) destroy.
12 But God is our King of old; he has wrought salvation in the midst of the earth.
And God [has been] king my from antiquity [who] does salvation in [the] midst of the earth.
13 You did establish the sea, in your might, you did break to pieces the heads of the dragons in the water.
You you divided by strength your [the] sea you shattered [the] heads of sea monsters on the waters.
14 You did break to pieces the heads of the dragon; you did give him [for] meat to the Ethiopian nations.
You you crushed [the] heads of Leviathan you gave it food to a people to desert-dwellers.
15 You did cleave fountains and torrents; you dried up mighty rivers.
You you broke open a spring and a torrent you you dried up rivers of ever-flowing.
16 The day is your, and the night is your; you have prepared the sun and the moon.
[belongs] to You day also [belongs] to you night you you prepared a luminary and [the] sun.
17 You have made all the borders of the earth; you have made summer and spring.
You you established all [the] boundaries of [the] earth summer and winter you you formed them.
18 Remember this your creation: an enemy has reproached the Lord, and a foolish people has provoked your name.
Remember this [the] enemy he taunted - O Yahweh and a people foolish they spurned name your.
19 Deliver not to the wild beasts a soul that gives praise to you: forget not for ever the souls of your poor.
May not you give to an animal [the] life of turtle-dove your [the] life of poor [people] your may not you forget to perpetuity.
20 Look upon your covenant: for the dark [places] of the earth are filled with the habitations of iniquity.
Pay attention to the covenant for they are full [the] dark places of [the] land settlements of violence.
21 let not the afflicted and shamed one be rejected: the poor and needy shall praise your name.
May not he return [the] oppressed humiliated [the] poor and [the] needy may they praise name your.
22 Arise, O God, plead your cause: remember your reproaches that come from the foolish one all the day.
Arise! O God conduct! case your remember reproach your from a fool all the day.
23 Forget not the voice of your suppliants: let the pride of them that hate you continually ascend before you.
May not you forget [the] sound of opposers your [the] uproar of [those who] rise against you [which] goes up continually.
