5 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.
6 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.
7 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.
