O Lord rebuke me not in thyyour anger nor chastendiscipline me in thyyour wrath |
| 38:2 |
For thyyour arrows have sunk into me and thyyour hand has come down on me |
| 38:3 |
There is no soundness in my flesh because of thyyour indignation; there is no health in my bones because of my sin |
| 38:4 |
For my iniquities have gone over my head; they weigh like a heavy burden they are too heavy for me |
| 38:5 |
My wounds growstink foul and fester because of my foolishness |
| 38:7 |
For my loinssides are filled with burning and there is no soundness in my flesh |

My heart throbs; my strength fails me; and the light of my eyes—it also has gone from me |
| 38:11 |
My friends and companions stand aloof from my plague and my kinsmennearest kin stand afarfar off |
| 38:12 |
Those who seek my life lay their snares; those who seek my hurt speak of ruin and meditate treachery all the day long |

| 77:16 |
When the waters saw theeyou O God when the waters saw theeyou they were afraid; yeaindeed the deep trembled |
| 77:17 |
The clouds poured out water; the skies gave forth thunder; thyyour arrows flashed on every side |
| 77:18 |
The crash of thyyour thunder was in the whirlwind; thyyour lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook |
| 77:19 |
ThyYour way was through the sea thyyour path through the great waters; yet thyyour footprints were unseen |
| 77:20 |
ThouYou didstled leadyour thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron |
| 78:4 |
We will not hide them from their children but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the Lord and his might and the wonders whichthat he has wroughtdone |
| 78:5 |
He established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel which he commanded our fathers to teach to their children; |
| 78:9 |
The E′phraimitesEphraimites armed with the bow turned back on the day of battle |
| 78:11 |
They forgot whathis heworks had done and the miracleswonders that he had shown them |
| 78:12 |
In the sight of their fathers he wroughtperformed marvelswonders in the land of Egypt in the fields of Zo′anZoan |
| 78:15 |
He cleftsplit rocks in the wilderness and gave them drink abundantly as from the deep |
| 78:20 |
He smotestruck the rock so that water gushed out and streams overflowed Can he also give bread or provide meat for his people |
| 78:21 |
Therefore when the Lord heard he was full of wrath; a fire was kindled against Jacob; his anger mountedrose against Israel; |
| 78:22 |
because they haddid nonot faithbelieve in God and did not trust his saving power |
| 78:23 |
Yet he commanded the skies above and opened the doors of heaven; |
| 78:24 |
and he rained down uponon them manna to eat and gave them the grain of heaven |
| 78:27 |
he rained fleshmeat uponon them like dust winged birds like the sand of the seas; |
| 78:28 |
he let them fall in the midst of their camp all around their habitationsdwellings |
| 78:30 |
But before they had satedsatisfied their craving while the food was still in their mouths |
| 78:31 |
the anger of God rose against them and he slewkilled the strongest of them and laid low the pickedyoung men of Israel |
| 78:34 |
When he slewkilled them they sought for him; they repented and sought God earnestly |
| 78:37 |
Their heart was not steadfast toward him; they were not truefaithful to his covenant |
| 78:38 |
Yet he being compassionate forgaveatoned for their iniquity and did not destroy them; he restrained his anger often and did not stir up all his wrath |
| 78:41 |
They tested himGod again and again and provoked the Holy One of Israel |
| 78:42 |
They did not keepremember in mind his power or the day when he redeemed them from the foe; |
| 78:43 |
when he wroughtperformed his signs in Egypt and his miraclesmarvels in the fields of Zo′anZoan |
| 78:46 |
He gave their crops to the caterpillardestroying locust and the fruit of their labor to the locust |
| 78:49 |
He let loose on them his fierceburning anger wrath indignation and distress a company of destroying angels |
| 78:51 |
He smotestruck alldown theevery firstfirstborn born in Egypt the firstfirstfruits issue of their strength in the tents of Ham |
| 78:52 |
Then he led forthout his people like sheep and guided them in the wilderness like a flock |
| 78:53 |
He led them in safety so that they were not afraid; but the sea overwhelmed their enemies |
| 78:56 |
Yet they tested and rebelled against the Most High God and did not observekeep his testimonies |
| 78:58 |
For they provoked him to anger with their high places; they moved him to jealousy with their graven imagesidols |
| 78:60 |
He forsook his dwelling at Shiloh the tent where he dwelt among menmankind |
| 78:63 |
Fire devoured their young men and their maidensyoung women had no marriage song |
| 78:67 |
He rejected the tent of Joseph; he did not choose the tribe of E′phraim;Ephraim |
| 78:69 |
He built his sanctuary like the high heavens like the earth which he has founded for everforever |
| 78:71 |
from tendingfollowing the nursing ewes that had young he brought him to be the shepherd of Jacob his people of Israel his inheritance |
| 78:72 |
With upright heart he tendedshepherded them and guided them with skilfulhis skillful hand |
| 79:1 |
O God the heathennations have come into thyyour inheritance; they have defiled thyyour holy temple; they have laid Jerusalem in ruins |
| 79:2 |
They have given the bodies of thyyour servants to the birds of the airheavens for food the flesh of thyyour saintsfaithful to the beasts of the earth |
| 79:3 |
They have poured out their blood like water roundall aboutaround Jerusalem and there was noneno one to bury them |
| 79:4 |
We have become a taunt to our neighbors mocked and derided by those roundaround about us |
| 79:5 |
How long O Lord WiltWill thouyou be angry forforever ever Will thyyour jealousjealousy wrath burn like fire |
| 79:6 |
Pour out thyyour anger on the nations that do not know theeyou and on the kingdoms that do not call onupon thyyour name |
| 79:8 |
Do not remember against us theour former iniquities of our forefathers; let thyyour compassion come speedily to meet us for we are brought very low |
| 79:9 |
Help us O God of our salvation for the glory of thyyour name; deliver us and forgiveatone for our sins for thyyour names sake |
| 79:10 |
Why should the nations say Where is their God Let the avenging of the outpoured blood of thyyour servants be known among the nations before our eyes |
| 79:11 |
Let the groans of the prisoners come before theeyou; according to thyyour great power preserve those doomed to die |
| 79:12 |
Return sevenfold into the bosomlap of our neighbors the taunts with which they have taunted theeyou O Lord |
| 79:13 |
ThenBut we thyyour people the flocksheep of thyyour pasture will give thanks to theeyou for everforever; from generation to generation we will recount thyyour praise |

| 80:9 |
ThouYou didstcleared clear the ground for it; it took deep root and filled the land |
| 80:10 |
