Psalm 74

From Textus Receptus

• 1 O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?

• 1 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.

• 1 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.

• 1 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.

• 1 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.

• 1 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.

• 1 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.

• 1 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.

• 1 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.

• 10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?

• 1 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom.

• 1 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.

• 1 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.

• 1 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.

• 1 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.

• 1 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.

• 17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.

• 1 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.

• 1 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.

• 1 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.

• 21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.

• 1 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.

• 1 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against thee increaseth continually.
