Psalm 79:1-3

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹ O God, the nations have come into your inheritance;
    they have defiled your holy temple;
    they have laid Jerusalem in ruins.^(A)
2 They have given the bodies of your servants
    to the birds of the air for food,
    the flesh of your faithful to the wild animals of the earth.^(B)
3 They have poured out their blood like water
    all around Jerusalem,
    and there was no one to bury them.^(C)
