Psalm 74:4–11

Psalm 74:4–112 matched frames

Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

A 4 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.
- B 5 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.
- B' 6 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.
A' 7-9 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground. 8 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land. 9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long. 10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever? 11 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom.
