Psalm 79:8-10

New Century Version

⁸ Don’t punish us for our past sins.
    Show your mercy to us soon,
    because we are helpless!
⁹ God our Savior, help us
    so people will praise you.
Save us and forgive our sins
    so people will honor you.
¹⁰ Why should the nations say,
    “Where is their God?”
Tell the other nations in our presence
    that you punish those who kill your servants.
