Psalm 74:4-8
New American Standard Bible
4 Your adversaries have (A)roared in the midst of Your meeting place;
They have set up their (B)own signs as (C)signs.
5 It [a]seems like one bringing up
His (D)axe into a [b]forest of trees.
6 And now they break down [c]all its (E)carved work
With axe and hammers.
7 They have [d](F)burned Your sanctuary [e]to the ground;
They have (G)defiled the dwelling place of Your name.
8 They (H)said in their heart, “Let’s [f]completely [g]subdue them.”
They have burned all the meeting places of God in the land.
