Psalms 74 — O God, Why Hast Thou Cast Us Off For Ever?

Summary

O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? Remember thy congregation. Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations. Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations. We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet. O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth. Arise, O God, plead thine own cause.
