Psalm 74:18–20

18 Remember how the enemy has mocked you, Lord,

how foolish people have reviled your name.

19 Do not hand over the life of your dove to wild beasts;

do not forget the lives of your afflicted people forever.

20 Have regard for your covenant,

because haunts of violence fill the dark places of the land.

18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Lord,

And that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.

19 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the wicked:

Forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.

20 Have respect unto the covenant:

For the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.

18 See how these enemies insult you, Lord.

A foolish nation has dishonored your name.

19 Don’t let these wild beasts destroy your turtledoves.

Don’t forget your suffering people forever.

20 Remember your covenant promises,

for the land is full of darkness and violence!

18 Remember this, that the enemy has reproached, O Lord,

And that a foolish people has blasphemed Your name.

19 Oh, do not deliver the life of Your turtledove to the wild beast!

Do not forget the life of Your poor forever.

20 Have respect to the covenant;

For the dark places of the earth are full of the haunts of cruelty.

18 Lord, remember how the enemy insulted you.

Remember how those foolish people made fun of you.

19 Do not give us, your doves, to those wild animals.

Never forget your poor people.

20 Remember the agreement you made with us,

because violence fills every dark corner of this land.

18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Jehovah,

And that a foolish people hath blasphemed thy name.

19 Oh deliver not the soul of thy turtle-dove unto the wild beast:

Forget not the life of thy poor for ever.

20 Have respect unto the covenant;

For the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of violence.

18 Remember this, that an enemy hath reproached Jehovah, and a foolish people have contemned thy name. 19 Give not up the soul of thy turtle-dove unto the wild beast; forget not the troop of thine afflicted for ever. 20 Have respect unto the covenant; for the dark places of the earth are full of the dwellings of violence.

18 Remember how the enemy insulted you, O Lord. 

Remember how an entire nation of godless fools despised your name. 

19 Do not hand over the soul of your dove to wild animals. 

Do not forget the life of your oppressed people forever. 

20 Consider your promise

because every dark corner of the land is filled with violence. 

18 Remember this: the enemy has mocked Yahweh,

and a foolish people has insulted Your name.

19 Do not give the life of Your dove to beasts;

do not forget the lives of Your poor people forever.

20 Consider the covenant,

for the dark places of the land are full of violence.

18 Remember this, O Lord, how the enemy scoffs,

and an impious people reviles your name.

19 Do not deliver the soul of your dove to the wild animals;

do not forget the life of your poor forever.

20 Have regard for your covenant,

for the dark places of the land are full of the haunts of violence.

18 O Yahweh, remember this: the enemy taunts,

and foolish people treat your name with contempt.

19 Do not give to beasts the life of your dove;

do not ever forget the life of your afflicted ones.

20 Have regard for the covenant,

because the dark places of the land are full of

the haunts of violence.

18 Lord, remember how your enemies have made fun of you.

Remember how foolish people have attacked you with their words.

19 Don’t hand Israel, your dove, over to those wild animals.

Don’t forget your suffering people forever.

20 Honor the covenant you made with us.

Horrible things are happening in every dark corner of the land.

18 Remember this, O Lord, that the enemy has reviled,

And a foolish people has spurned Your name.

19 Do not deliver the soul of Your turtledove to the wild beast;

Do not forget the life of Your afflicted forever.

20 Consider the covenant;

For the dark places of the land are full of the habitations of violence.
