Psalms 78:61-69
-
61 And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the enemy's hand.
-
62 He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with his inheritance.
-
63 The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given to marriage.
-
64 Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.
-
65 Then the LORD awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine.
-
66 And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a perpetual reproach.
-
67 Moreover he refused the tabernacle of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim:
-
68 But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.
-
69 And he built his sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth which he hath established for ever.
