Psalm 79:10-12
Contemporary English Version
Psalm 79:10-12
Contemporary English Version
10 Why should nations ask us,
“Where is your God?”
Let us and the other nations
see you take revenge
for your servants who died
a violent death.
11 Listen to the prisoners groan!
Let your mighty power save all
who are sentenced to die.
12 Each of those nations sneered
at you, our Lord.
Now let others sneer at them,
seven times as much.
Psalm 79:10-12

Psalm 79:10-12
New International Version
10 Why should the nations say,
“Where is their God?”(A)
Before our eyes, make known among the nations
that you avenge(B) the outpoured blood(C) of your servants.
11 May the groans of the prisoners come before you;
with your strong arm preserve those condemned to die.
12 Pay back into the laps(D) of our neighbors seven times(E)
the contempt they have hurled at you, Lord.
