[1]
Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?
[2] Remember your congregation, which you purchased of old,
which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your inheritance:
Mount Zion, in which you have lived.
[3] Lift up your feet to the perpetual ruins,
all the evil that the enemy has done in the sanctuary.
[4] Your adversaries have roared in the middle of your assembly.
They have set up their standards as signs.
[5] They behaved like men wielding axes,
cutting through a thicket of trees.
[6] Now they break all its carved work down with hatchet and hammers.
[7] They have burned your sanctuary to the ground.
They have profaned the dwelling place of your Name.
[8] They said in their heart, “We will crush them completely.”
They have burned up all the places in the land where God was worshiped.
[9] We see no miraculous signs.
There is no longer any prophet,
neither is there among us anyone who knows how long.
[10] How long, God, shall the adversary reproach?
Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever?
[11] Why do you draw back your hand, even your right hand?
Take it from your chest and consume them! [12] Yet God is my King of old,
working salvation throughout the earth.
[13] You divided the sea by your strength.
You broke the heads of the sea monsters in the waters.
[14] You broke the heads of Leviathan in pieces.
You gave him as food to people and desert creatures.
[15] You opened up spring and stream.
You dried up mighty rivers.
[16] The day is yours, the night is also yours.
You have prepared the light and the sun.
[17] You have set all the boundaries of the earth.
You have made summer and winter. [18] Remember this, that the enemy has mocked you, Yahweh.
Foolish people have blasphemed your name.
[19] Don’t deliver the soul of your dove to wild beasts.
Don’t forget the life of your poor forever.
[20] Honor your covenant,
for haunts of violence fill the dark places of the earth.
[21] Don’t let the oppressed return ashamed.
Let the poor and needy praise your name.
[22] Arise, God! Plead your own cause.
Remember how the foolish man mocks you all day.
[23] Don’t forget the voice of your adversaries.
The tumult of those who rise up against you ascends continually.
A contemplation by Asaph.
God, why have you rejected us forever?Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?
[2] Remember your congregation, which you purchased of old,
which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your inheritance:
Mount Zion, in which you have lived.
