Psalms 79:10 Context
8O remember not against vs former iniquities, let thy tender mercies speedily preuent vs: for we are brought very low. 9Helpe vs, O God of our saluation, for the glory of thy Name: and deliuer vs, and purge away our sinnes for thy Names sake. 10Wherfore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be knowen among the heathen in our sight by the reuenging of the blood of thy seruants which is shed. 11Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee, according to the greatnesse of thy power: preserue thou those that are appointed to die. 12And render vnto our neighbours seuen fold into their bosome, their reproach wherewith they haue reproched thee, O Lord.
