Psalm 79:2-4
Common English Bible
2 They’ve left your servants’ bodies
as food for the birds;
they’ve left the flesh of your faithful
to the wild animals of the earth.
3 They’ve poured out the blood of the faithful
like water all around Jerusalem,
and there’s no one left to bury them.
4 We’ve become a joke to our neighbors,
nothing but objects of ridicule
and disapproval to those around us.
Psalm 79:2-4
New International Version
2 They have left the dead bodies of your servants
as food for the birds of the sky,(A)
the flesh of your own people for the animals of the wild.(B)
3 They have poured out blood like water
all around Jerusalem,
and there is no one to bury(C) the dead.(D)
4 We are objects of contempt to our neighbors,
of scorn(E) and derision to those around us.(F)
