Psalms 73 — GMV

73 Verse 1 A Psalm of instruction for Asaph. ^{Verse 2} Remember thy congregation which thou hast purchased from the beginning; ^{Verse 3} Lift up thy hands against their pride continually; ^{Verse 4} And they that hate thee have boasted in the midst of thy feast; ^{Verse 5} Ignorantly as it were in the entrance above; ^{Verse 6} They cut down its doors at once with axes as in a wood of trees; ^{Verse 7} They have burned thy sanctuary with fire to the ground; ^{Verse 8} They have said in their heart, even all their kindred together, ^{Verse 9} We have not seen our signs; ^{Verse 10} How long, O God, shall the enemy reproach? ^{Verse 11} Wherefore turnest thou away thy hand, ^{Verse 12} But God is our King of old; ^{Verse 13} Thou didst establish the sea, in thy might, ^{Verse 14} Thou didst break to pieces the heads of the dragon; ^{Verse 15} Thou didst cleave fountains and torrents; ^{Verse 16} The day is thine, and the night is thine; ^{Verse 17} Thou hast made all the borders of the earth; ^{Verse 18} Remember this thy creation: an enemy has reproached the Lord, ^{Verse 19} Deliver not to the wild beasts a soul that gives praise to thee: ^{Verse 20} Look upon thy covenant: ^{Verse 21} Let not the afflicted and shamed one be rejected: ^{Verse 22} Arise, O God, plead thy cause: ^{Verse 23} Forget not the voice of thy suppliants:
