The Nation Cries for Jerusalem

A song of Asaph.

79 God, nations have come against your people.
    They have ruined your holy Temple.
    They have turned Jerusalem into ruins.
They have given the bodies of your servants
    as food to the wild birds.
They have given the bodies of those who worship you
    to the wild animals.
They have spilled blood like water
    all around Jerusalem.
    No one was left to bury the dead.
