Psalm 74:4-8

New International Version

⁴ Your foes roared^(A) in the place where you met with us;
    they set up their standards^(B) as signs.
⁵ They behaved like men wielding axes
    to cut through a thicket of trees.^(C)
6 They smashed all the carved^(D) paneling
    with their axes and hatchets.
⁷ They burned your sanctuary to the ground;
    they defiled^(E) the dwelling place^(F) of your Name.^(G)
8 They said in their hearts, “We will crush^(H) them completely!”
    They burned^(I) every place where God was worshiped in the land.
