One of Asaph’s songs of praise.

79 God, some people from other nations came to fight your people.
    They ruined your holy Temple.
    They left Jerusalem in ruins.

    They let wild animals eat the bodies of your followers.
Blood flowed like water all over Jerusalem.
    No one is left to bury the bodies.
