3 Their blood have they shed like water around Jerusalem; and there was none to bury them.
4 We have become a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and derision to them that are around 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 succor 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.
