Psalms 74:4
Compare all
2 Remember Your congregation, which You have purchased of old,
The tribe of Your inheritance, which You have redeemed—
This Mount Zion where You have dwelt.
3 Lift up Your feet to the perpetual desolations.
The enemy has damaged everything in the sanctuary.
4 aYour enemies roar in the midst of Your meeting place;
bThey set up their banners for signs. 
5 They seem like men who lift up
Axes among the thick trees.
6 And now they break down its carved work, all at once,
With axes and hammers.
7 They have set fire to Your sanctuary;
They have defiled the dwelling place of Your name to the ground.
8 aThey said in their hearts,
“Let us1 destroy them altogether.”
They have burned up all the meeting places of God in the land. 
9 We do not see our signs;
aThere is no longer any prophet;
Nor is there any among us who knows how long. 
10 O God, how long will the adversary1 reproach?
Will the enemy blaspheme Your name forever?
