Psalm 79:5 in context

1. 3They have shed their blood like water around Jerusalem.
   There was no one to bury them.
2. 4We have become a reproach to our neighbors,
   a scoffing and derision to those who are around us.
3. 5How long, Yahweh?
   Will you be angry forever?
   Will your jealousy burn like fire?
4. 6Pour out your wrath on the nations that don’t know you,
   on the kingdoms that don’t call on your name;
5. 7for they have devoured Jacob,
   and destroyed his homeland.
