Psalm 79:8-10

EasyEnglish Bible

⁸ Our ancestors did bad things,
    but do not say that we are guilty because of that.
Be kind and send help to us quickly.
    We are in a lot of trouble!
⁹ God, help us! You are the one who can save us.
Rescue us,
    so that people will respect your great name.
Forgive our sins,
    so that people know you are good.
¹⁰ Foreign nations are saying about us,
    ‘Their God cannot help them!’
That is not right!
People of those nations have murdered your servants,
    so punish them for us to see.
