Psalms 74:4-11

The Enemy’s Desecration of the Sanctuary

Psalms 74:4-11
4
Roared have thine adversaries, In the midst of Thy meeting-places, They have set their ensigns as ensigns.
5
He is known as one bringing in on high Against a thicket of wood--axes.
6
And now, its carvings together With axe and hatchet they break down,
7
They have sent into fire Thy sanctuary, to the earth they polluted the tabernacle of Thy name,
8
They said in their hearts, `Let us oppress them together,' They did burn all the meeting-places of God in the land.
9
Our ensigns we have not seen, There is no more a prophet, Nor with us is one knowing how long.
10
Till when, O God, doth an adversary reproach? Doth an enemy despise thy name for ever?
11
Why dost Thou turn back Thy hand, Even Thy right hand? From the midst of Thy bosom remove it .
