Chapter 79
1God, the nations have invaded Your inheritance; They have defiled Your holy temple; They have laid Jerusalem in ruins. 2They have given the dead bodies of Your servants to the birds of the sky as food, The flesh of Your godly ones to the animals of the earth. 3They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem; And there was no one to bury them. 4We have become a disgrace before our neighbors, An object of derision and ridicule to those around us.King James Version

1O God, pagan nations have conquered your land, your special possession. They have defiled your holy Temple and made Jerusalem a heap of ruins. 2They have left the bodies of your servants as food for the birds of heaven. The flesh of your godly ones has become food for the wild animals. 3Blood has flowed like water all around Jerusalem; no one is left to bury the dead. 4We are mocked by our neighbors, an object of scorn and derision to those around us.English Standard Version
