New American Standard Bible
Chapter 79
7For they have devoured Jacob And laid waste his settlement. 8Do not hold us responsible for the guilty deeds of our forefathers; Let Your compassion come quickly to meet us, For we have become very low. 9Help us, God of our salvation, for the glory of Your name; And save us and forgive our sins for the sake of Your name. 10Why should the nations say, 'Where is their God?' Let vengeance for the blood of Your servants which has been shed Be known among the nations in our sight.King James Version

7For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place. 8O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low. 9Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake. 10Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy servants which is shed.Christian Standard Bible
8Do not hold past iniquities against us; let your compassion come to us quickly, for we have become very weak.
9God of our salvation, help us, for the glory of your name. Rescue us and atone for our sins, for your name's sake.
10Why should the nations ask, "Where is their God? " Before our eyes, let vengeance for the shed blood of your servants be known among the nations.
