mkjv@Psalms:74:11 @ Why do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand? Draw [it] out of Your bosom.

mkjv@Psalms:78:4 @ We will not hide [them] from their sons, showing to the generations to come the praises of the LORD, and His strength, and His wonderful works that He has done.
mkjv@Psalms:78:5 @ For He set up a testimony in Jacob, and ordered a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers, that they should teach them to their sons;
mkjv@Psalms:78:6 @ so that the generation to come might know; sons shall be born, and they shall arise [and] tell their sons,
mkjv@Psalms:78:7 @ so that they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments;

mkjv@Psalms:78:14 @ And in the daytime He led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire.
mkjv@Psalms:78:15 @ He split the rocks in the wilderness, and let [them] drink, as [from] the great depths.
mkjv@Psalms:78:16 @ He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.
mkjv@Psalms:78:17 @ And they sinned still more against Him, by provoking the Most High in the wilderness.
mkjv@Psalms:78:18 @ And they tempted God in their heart by asking food for their lust.
mkjv@Psalms:78:19 @ And they spoke against God; they said, Can God set a table in the wilderness?
mkjv@Psalms:78:20 @ Behold! He struck the rock so that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed. Can He also give bread? Can He provide flesh for His people?
mkjv@Psalms:78:21 @ Therefore the LORD heard, and was made furious; so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel,
mkjv@Psalms:78:22 @ because they did not believe in God, and did not trust in His salvation;
mkjv@Psalms:78:23 @ though He had commanded the clouds from above, and had opened the doors of the heavens;
mkjv@Psalms:78:24 @ and had rained down manna on them to eat, and He gave them of the grain of the heavens.
mkjv@Psalms:78:25 @ Man ate the food of the mighty; He sent them meat to the full.
mkjv@Psalms:78:26 @ He caused an east [wind] to blow in the sky; and by His power He brought in the south [wind].
mkjv@Psalms:78:27 @ and He also rained flesh on them like dust, and winged birds like the sand of the sea;
mkjv@Psalms:78:28 @ and He let [them] fall in the middle of their camp, all around their tents.
mkjv@Psalms:78:29 @ So they ate, and were filled to the full; for He gave them their own desire.
mkjv@Psalms:78:30 @ They were not turned away from their lust, but while their food [was] still in their mouths,
mkjv@Psalms:78:31 @ the wrath of God came on them and killed the fattest of them, and struck down the chosen of Israel.
mkjv@Psalms:78:32 @ For all this they still sinned, and did not believe because of His wonderful works.
mkjv@Psalms:78:33 @ Therefore He ended their days in vanity and their years in trouble.
mkjv@Psalms:78:34 @ When He killed them, then they looked for Him; and they turned back and sought after God.
mkjv@Psalms:78:35 @ And they remembered that God [was] their rock, and the Most High God was their redeemer.
mkjv@Psalms:78:36 @ But they flattered Him with their mouths, and they lied to Him with their tongues.
mkjv@Psalms:78:37 @ For their heart was not right with Him, neither were they faithful in His covenant.
mkjv@Psalms:78:38 @ But He, full of pity, forgave their iniquity, and did not destroy [them]; yea, many times He turned His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath.
mkjv@Psalms:78:39 @ For He remembered that they [were but] flesh, a wind that passes away and does not come again.
mkjv@Psalms:78:40 @ How often they provoked Him in the wilderness, and grieved Him in the desert!
mkjv@Psalms:78:41 @ Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and pained to the Holy One of Israel.
mkjv@Psalms:78:42 @ They did not remember His hand, the day when He delivered them from the enemy;
mkjv@Psalms:78:43 @ how He had set His signs in Egypt, and His wonders in the fields of Zoan.
mkjv@Psalms:78:44 @ He turned their rivers into blood, and their floods, [so that] they could not drink.
mkjv@Psalms:78:45 @ He sent different kinds of flies among them, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them.
mkjv@Psalms:78:46 @ He also gave their crops to the stripping locust, and their labor to the locust.
mkjv@Psalms:78:47 @ He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with sleet.
mkjv@Psalms:78:48 @ He gave up their cattle to the hail, and their flocks to bolts of fire.
mkjv@Psalms:78:49 @ He sent on them the heat of His anger, wrath and fury and trouble, by sending evil angels.
mkjv@Psalms:78:50 @ He made a way to His anger; He did not save their soul from death, but gave their life over to the plague,
mkjv@Psalms:78:51 @ and struck all the first-born in Egypt, the first of the strong in the tents of Ham;
mkjv@Psalms:78:52 @ and led His people forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.
mkjv@Psalms:78:53 @ And He led them on safely, so that they did not fear; but the sea flooded over their enemies.
mkjv@Psalms:78:54 @ And He brought them within His own holy border, this mountain, [which] His right hand had bought.
mkjv@Psalms:78:55 @ He also cast out the nations before them, and divided them an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
mkjv@Psalms:78:56 @ Yet they tempted and provoked the Most High God, and kept not His testimonies;
mkjv@Psalms:78:57 @ but they turned back, and acted unfaithfully like their fathers; they were turned aside like a deceiving bow.
mkjv@Psalms:78:58 @ For they provoked Him to anger with their high places, and moved Him to jealousy with their carved images.
mkjv@Psalms:78:59 @ When God heard, He was angry, and turned away from Israel;
mkjv@Psalms:78:60 @ so that He left the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent [which] He placed among men,
mkjv@Psalms:78:61 @ and delivered His strength into captivity, and His glory into the enemy's hands.
mkjv@Psalms:78:62 @ He also gave His people over to the sword, and was angry with His inheritance.
mkjv@Psalms:78:63 @ The fire burned up their young men; and their maidens were not given in marriage.
mkjv@Psalms:78:64 @ Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows were not able to weep.
mkjv@Psalms:78:65 @ Then the Lord awakened like one out of sleep, like a mighty man rejoicing with wine.
mkjv@Psalms:78:66 @ And He drove His enemies backward; He put them to a never-ending shame.
mkjv@Psalms:78:67 @ And He refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim;
mkjv@Psalms:78:68 @ but chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which He loved.
mkjv@Psalms:78:69 @ And He built His holy place like high [palaces], like the earth which He has founded forever.
mkjv@Psalms:78:70 @ He also chose David His servant, and took him from the sheepfolds;
mkjv@Psalms:78:71 @ from following the ewes great with young He brought him to feed Jacob His people, and Israel His inheritance.
mkjv@Psalms:78:72 @ And he fed them according to the pureness of his heart, and guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.

mkjv@Psalms:79:3 @ They have shed their blood like water round about Jerusalem, and none to bury.
mkjv@Psalms:79:4 @ We have become a shame to our neighbors, a scorn and mockery to those who are around us.
mkjv@Psalms:79:5 @ How long, O LORD? Will You be angry forever? Shall Your jealousy burn like fire?
mkjv@Psalms:79:6 @ Pour out Your wrath on the nations who have not known You, and on the kingdoms who have not called on Your name.
mkjv@Psalms:79:7 @ For [they have] eaten up Jacob, and wasted his dwelling-place.
mkjv@Psalms:79:8 @ O do not remember against us our former sins; let Your tender mercies meet us quickly; for we are brought very low.
mkjv@Psalms:79:9 @ Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Your name; and deliver us, and atone for our sins, for Your name's sake.
mkjv@Psalms:79:10 @ Why should the nations say, Where [is] their God? Let Him be known among the nations before our eyes [by] the revenging of the blood of Your servants [which is] shed.
mkjv@Psalms:79:11 @ Let the groaning of the prisoner come before You; according to the greatness of Your power, leave a remnant of those who are to die,
mkjv@Psalms:79:12 @ and give to our neighbors their curse sevenfold into their bosom, the curse with which they have cursed You, O Lord.

mkjv@Psalms:83:6 @ the tents of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarites;
mkjv@Psalms:83:7 @ Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the people of Tyre;
mkjv@Psalms:83:8 @ and Assyria has joined with them; they have helped the sons of Lot. Selah.
mkjv@Psalms:83:9 @ Do to them as [to] Midian, as [to] Sisera, as [to] Jabin at the torrent Kishon;
