Psalms Chapter 78

1 (Maschil of Asaph.) Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your 
ears to the words of my mouth.

2 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:

3 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.

4 We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the generation 
to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful 
works that he hath done.

5 For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in 
Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known 
to their children:

6 That the generation to come might know them, even the children which 
should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:

7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of 
God, but keep his commandments:

8 And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious 
generation; a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose 
spirit was not stedfast with God.

9 The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows, turned back 
in the day of battle.

10 They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;

11 And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them.

12 Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land 
of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.

13 He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the 
waters to stand as an heap.

14 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with 
a light of fire.

15 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of 
the great depths.

16 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run 
down like rivers.

17 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in 
the wilderness.

18 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust.

19 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in 
the wilderness?

20 Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the 
streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his 
people?

21 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was kindled 
against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;

22 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation:

23 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors 
of heaven,

24 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the 
corn of heaven.

25 Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.

26 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he 
brought in the south wind.

27 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as 
the sand of the sea:

28 And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their 
habitations.

29 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own desire;

30 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat was yet 
in their mouths,

31 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and 
smote down the chosen men of Israel.

32 For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous works.

33 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in 
trouble.

34 When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and 
enquired early after God.

35 And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God their 
redeemer.

36 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied 
unto him with their tongues.

37 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in 
his covenant.

38 But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and 
destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did 
not stir up all his wrath.

39 For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, 
and cometh not again.

40 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the 
desert!

41 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of 
Israel.

42 They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered them from 
the enemy.

43 How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field 
of Zoan:

44 And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they 
could not drink.

45 He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and 
frogs, which destroyed them.

46 He gave also their increase unto the caterpiller, and their labour 
unto the locust.

47 He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycomore trees with frost.

48 He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot 
thunderbolts.

49 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and 
indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.

50 He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but 
gave their life over to the pestilence;

51 And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in 
the tabernacles of Ham:

52 But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in 
the wilderness like a flock.

53 And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea 
overwhelmed their enemies.

54 And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this 
mountain, which his right hand had purchased.

55 He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an 
inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.

56 Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his 
testimonies:

57 But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were 
turned aside like a deceitful bow.

58 For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him 
to jealousy with their graven images.

59 When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel:

60 So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he placed 
among men;

61 And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the 
enemy's hand.

62 He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with his 
inheritance.

63 The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given 
to marriage.

64 Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.

65 Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that 
shouteth by reason of wine.

66 And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a 
perpetual reproach.

67 Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe 
of Ephraim:

68 But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.

69 And he built his sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth which he 
hath established for ever.

70 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds:

71 From following the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob 
his people, and Israel his inheritance.

72 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided 
them by the skilfulness of his hands.

Psalms Chapter 79

1 (A Psalm of Asaph.) O God, the heathen are come into thine 
inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem 
on heaps.

2 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the 
fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.

3 Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there 
was none to bury them.

4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to 
them that are round about us.

5 How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn 
like fire?

6 Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon 
the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

7 For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.

8 O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies 
speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.

9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and 
deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake.

10 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be 
known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of 
thy servants which is shed.

11 Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the 
greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;

12 And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their 
reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.

13 So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for 
ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.
