Psalms 78:60-72

Thomson(i) 60 and he abandoned the tabernacle of Selom; the tent in which he had dwelt among men; 61 and delivered up their strength to captivity, and their glory into an enemy's hand; 62 and gave up his people to the sword, and slighted his inheritance. 63 A fire consumed their young men, and their virgins made no lamentation. 64 Their priests fell by the sword and their widows are not to bewail them. 65 At length the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, as a mighty man recovered from wine; 66 and he smote his enemies in the hinder parts, and cast an everlasting reproach on them. 67 But he rejected the habitation of Joseph, and did not chuse the tribe of Ephraim; 68 but made choice of the tribe of Juda; of this mount Sion which he loved, 69 and built his sanctuary like that of unicorns; in this land he founded it for this age, 70 and he chose David his servant and took him from the flocks of sheep; 71 he took them from tending the ewes with young to feed his servant Jacob and Israel his inheritance. 72 And he fed them in the integrity of his heart, and guided them by the skill of his hands.
