Psalm 74:1-3

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹ O God, why do you cast us off forever?
    Why does your anger smoke against the sheep of your pasture?
² Remember your congregation, which you acquired long ago,
    which you redeemed to be the tribe of your heritage.
    Remember Mount Zion, where you came to dwell.
³ Direct your steps to the perpetual ruins;
    the enemy has destroyed everything in the sanctuary.
