Psalm 79:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ Don’t ·punish us for our past sins [^Lremember our former guilt].
    Show your ·mercy [compassion] to us soon,
    because we are ·helpless [very low]!
⁹ God our ·Savior [Victor], help us
    ·so people will praise you [^Lfor the glory of your name].
·Save [Protect] us and ·forgive [atone for] our sins
    ·so people will honor you [^Lfor your name].
¹⁰ Why should the nations say,
    “Where is their God?”
·Tell [Inform] the other nations ·in our presence [^Lbefore our eyes]
    that you ·punish [avenge] ·those who kill your servants [^Lthe blood of your servants that has been poured out].
