Psalms 74:12

Compare all

10 O God, how long will the adversary¹ reproach?
Will the enemy blaspheme Your name forever?

11 ^aWhy do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand?
Take it out of Your bosom and destroy them.

12 For ^aGod is my King from of old,
Working salvation in the midst of the earth.

13 ^aYou divided the sea by Your strength;
You broke the heads of the¹ sea serpents in the waters.

14 You broke the heads of¹ Leviathan in pieces,
And gave him as food to the people inhabiting the wilderness.

15 ^aYou broke open the fountain and the flood;
^bYou dried up mighty rivers.

16 The day is Yours, the night also is ^aYours;
^bYou have prepared the light and the sun.

17 You have ^aset all the borders of the earth;
^bYou have made summer and winter.

18 Remember this, that the enemy has reproached, O Lord,
And that a foolish people has blasphemed Your name.

19 Oh, do not deliver the life of Your turtledove to the wild beast!
Do not forget the life of Your poor forever.

20 ^aHave respect to the covenant;
For the¹ dark places of the earth are full of the² haunts of cruelty.
