7 They have set fire to your Sanctuary. They have polluted the tabernacle of your name on earth.
8 They have said in their heart, the whole group of them together: "Let us cause all the feast days of God to cease from the land.
9 We have not seen our proof; there is now no prophet. And he will no longer know us."
10 How long, O God, will the enemy place blame? Is the adversary to provoke your name until the end?
11 Why do you turn your hand away, even your right hand, from the midst of your sinews, until the end?
12 But God is our king before all ages. He has wrought salvation in the midst of the earth.
13 In your virtue, you confirmed the sea. You crushed the heads of the serpents in the waters.
