Psalm 79:8-10

Easy-to-Read Version

⁸ Please don’t punish us for the sins of our ancestors.
    Hurry, show us your mercy!
    We need you so much!
⁹ Our God and Savior, help us!
    That will bring glory to your name.
Save us and forgive our sins
    for the good of your name.
¹⁰ Don’t give the other nations a reason to say,
    “Where is their God? Can’t he help them?”
Let us see you punish those people.
    Punish them for killing your servants.
