Psalms 79:8 Context
6Powre out thy wrath vpon the heathen that haue not knowen thee, and vpon the kingdomes that haue not called vpon thy name. 7For they haue deuoured Iacob: and laid waste his dwelling place. 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.
