Your Daily Psalm

With "Your Daily Psalm" I'm Chris Laning from NeighborhoodStage.com. As always I'll be reading from the NET Bible at NETBible.org. ----------------------- Psalm 79 A psalm of Asaph. O God, foreigners have invaded your chosen land; they have polluted your holy temple and turned Jerusalem into a heap of ruins. 2 They have given the corpses of your servants to the birds of the sky; the flesh of your loyal followers to the beasts of the earth. 3 They have made their blood flow like water all around Jerusalem, and there is no one to bury them. 4 We have become an object of disdain to our neighbors; those who live on our borders taunt and insult us. 5 How long will this go on, O Lord? Will you stay angry forever? How long will your rage burn like fire? 6 Pour out your anger on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the kingdoms that do not pray to you! 7 For they have devoured Jacob and destroyed his home. 8 Do not hold us accountable for the sins of earlier generations! Quickly send your compassion our way,
