Chapter 79.
God, other people-groups have invaded your land. They have ◄desecrated your temple/caused your temple to be unfit for worship►, and they have destroyed all the buildings in Jerusalem. 
Instead of burying the corpses of your people whom they killed, they allowed vultures and wild animals to eat the flesh of those corpses, 
When they killed your people, your people’s blood flowed like water through the streets of Jerusalem, and there was almost no one HYP left to bury their corpses. 
The people-groups that live in countries that surround our land insult us; they laugh at us and deride/belittle us. 
Yahweh, how long will this continue? Will you be angry with us forever? Will your being angry destroy us like a burning fire destroys things? 
Instead of being angry with us, be angry with the people-groups that do not know/worship you! Be angry with kingdoms whose people do not pray to you, 
because they have killed Israeli people and they have ruined your country. 
Do not punish us because of the sins that our ancestors committed! Be merciful to us now/quickly, because we are very discouraged. 
God, you have saved/rescued us many times, so help us now; rescue us and forgive us for having sinned in order that other people will honor you MTY. 
It is not right that RHQ other people-groups say about us, “If their God is very powerful, ◄surely he should help them/why does he not help them►?” Allow us to see you punishing the people of other nations in return for their shedding our blood; they have killed many of us, your people. 
Listen to your people groaning while they are in prison, and by your great power free those whom our enemies say that they will certainly execute. 
In return for their having often insulted you, punish them seven times as much! 
After you do that, we, whom you take care of like a shepherd takes care of his sheep, will continue praising you; we will continue to praise you forever HYP.
