Psalms 78
60 Ref And He leaveth the tabernacle of Shiloh, The tent He had placed among men,
61 Ref And He giveth His strength to captivity, And His beauty into the hand of an adversary,
62 Ref And delivereth up to the sword His people, And with His inheritance shewed Himself angry.
63 Ref His young men hath fire consumed, And His virgins have not been praised.
64 Ref His priests by the sword have fallen, And their widows weep not.
65 Ref And the Lord waketh as a sleeper, As a mighty one crying aloud from wine.
66 Ref And He smiteth His adversaries backward, A reproach age-during He hath put on them,
67 Ref And He kicketh against the tent of Joseph, And on the tribe of Ephraim hath not fixed.
68 Ref And He chooseth the tribe of Judah, With mount Zion that He loved,
69 Ref And buildeth His sanctuary as a high place, Like the earth, He founded it to the age.
70 Ref And He fixeth on David His servant, And taketh him from the folds of a flock,
71 Ref From behind suckling ones He hath brought him in, To rule over Jacob His people, And over Israel His inheritance.
72 Ref And he ruleth them according to the integrity of his heart, And by the skilfulness of his hands leadeth them!
