Psalms 74 Cross References - CAB

¹ A Psalm of instruction, of Asaph. Why have You rejected us, O God, forever? Why has Your wrath been kindled against the sheep of Your pasture? ² Remember Your congregation which You have purchased from the beginning; You ransomed the rod of Your inheritance, this Mount Zion where You have dwelt. ³ Lift up Your hands against their pride continually; because of all that the enemy has done wickedly in Your holy places. ⁴ And they that hate You have boasted in the midst of Your feast; they have set up their standards for signs, ⁵ ignorantly as it were in the entrance above; ⁶ they cut down its doors at once with axes as in a wood of trees; they have broken it down with hatchet and stone cutter. ⁷ They have burned Your sanctuary with fire to the ground; they have profaned the habitation of Your name. ⁸ They have said in their heart, even all their kindred together, Come, let us abolish the feasts of the Lord from the earth. ⁹ We have not seen our signs; there is no longer a prophet; and God will not know us anymore. ¹⁰ How long, O God, shall the enemy reproach? Shall the enemy provoke Your name forever? ¹¹ Why do You turn away Your hand, and Your right hand from the midst of Your bosom forever? ¹² But God is our King of old; He has wrought salvation in the midst of the earth. ¹³ You established the sea in Your might, You broke to pieces the heads of the dragons in the water. ¹⁴ You broke to pieces the heads of the dragon; You gave him as meat to the Ethiopian nations. ¹⁵ You broke open the fountains and torrents; You dried up mighty rivers. ¹⁶ The day is Yours, and the night is Yours; You have prepared the sun and the moon. ¹⁷ You have made all the borders of the earth; You have made summer and spring. ¹⁸ Remember this Your creation; an enemy has reproached the Lord, and a foolish people have provoked Your name. ¹⁹ Deliver not to the wild beasts a soul that gives praise to You: forget not forever the souls of Your poor. ²⁰ Look upon Your covenant; for the dark places of the earth are filled with the habitations of iniquity. ²¹ Let not the afflicted and ashamed one be rejected; the poor and needy shall praise Your name. ²² Arise, O God, plead Your cause; remember Your reproaches that come from the foolish one all the day. ²³ Forget not the voice of Your enemies; let the pride of them that hate You continually ascend before You.

³ And God said, Let there be light, and there was light. ⁴ And God saw the light that it was good, and God divided between the light and the darkness. ⁵ And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night, and there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

And have you not wondered at the things said of him? ^{10 (41:1)} Do you not fear because preparation has been made by Me? For who is there that resists Me? ^{11 (41:2)} Or who will resist Me, and stand their ground, since the whole world under heaven is Mine? ^{12 (41:3)} I will not be silent because of him: though because of his power one shall pity his antagonist. ^{13 (41:4)} Who will open the face of his garment?

²⁸ I will keep My mercy for him forever, and My covenant shall be firm with him.

³⁴ Neither will I by any means profane My covenant; and I will not make void the things that proceed out of My lips. ³⁵ Once have I sworn by My holiness, that I will not lie to David. ³⁶ His seed shall endure forever, and his throne as the sun before Me;

³⁹ You have overthrown the covenant of Your servant; You have profaned his sanctuary, casting it to the ground.

⁴⁶ How long, O Lord? Will You turn away, forever? Shall Your anger flame out as fire?

¹³ You shall arise, and have mercy upon Zion; for it is time to have mercy upon her, for the appointed time has come. ¹⁴ For Your servants have taken pleasure in her stones, and they shall pity her dust.

¹⁹ For He has looked out from the height of His sanctuary; the Lord looked upon the earth from heaven; ²⁰ to hear the groaning of the fettered ones, to loosen the sons of the slain; ²¹ to proclaim the name of the Lord in Zion, and His praise in Jerusalem;

⁶ The Lord executes mercy and judgment for all that are injured.

¹⁹ He appointed the moon for seasons; the sun knows its going down.

²⁵ So is this great and wide sea; there are things creeping innumerable, small animals and great. ²⁶ There go the ships; and this dragon whom You have made to play in it.

⁸ He has remembered His covenant forever, the word which He commanded for a thousand generations;

⁴¹ He split the rock, and the waters flowed; rivers ran in dry places.

⁸ Yet He saved them for His name's sake, that He might cause His mighty power to be known. ⁹ And He rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up; so He led them through the deep as through the wilderness.

⁴⁰ So the Lord was very angry with His people, and He abhorred His inheritance.

⁴⁵ And He remembered His covenant, and relented according to the multitude of His mercy.

²² Deliver me, for I am poor and needy; and my heart is troubled within me.

¹³ For the Lord has elected Zion, He has chosen her for a habitation for Himself, saying, ¹⁴ This is My rest forever: here will I dwell; for I have chosen it.

⁴ For the Lord has chosen Jacob for Himself, and Israel for His peculiar treasure.

⁷ To Him who alone made great lights; for His mercy endures forever. ⁸ The sun to rule by day; for His mercy endures forever. ⁹ The moon and the stars to rule the night; for His mercy endures forever.

¹³ To Him who divided the Red Sea into parts; for His mercy endures forever; ¹⁴ and brought Israel through the midst of it; for His mercy endures forever; ¹⁵ and overthrew Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea; for His mercy endures forever. ¹⁶ To Him who led His people through the wilderness; for His mercy endures forever. ¹⁷ To Him who struck down great kings; for His mercy endures forever; ¹⁸ and slew mighty kings; for His mercy endures forever:

⁷ Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Raze it, raze it, even to its foundations.

¹⁴ You are my dove, in the shelter of the rock, near the wall: show me your face, and cause me to hear your voice; for your voice is sweet, and your countenance is beautiful.

¹ Behold, you are fair, my companion; behold, you are fair; your eyes are doves, beside your veil: your hair is as flocks of goats, that have appeared from Gilead.

^{9 (6:8)} My dove, my perfect one is one; she is the only one of her mother; she is the choice of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and the queens will pronounce her blessed, yes, and the concubines, and they will praise her.

⁶ I will send My wrath against a sinful nation, and I will command My people to take plunder and spoil, and to trample the cities, and to make dust out of them.

¹⁵ And the Lord shall make desolate the sea of Egypt; and He shall lay His hand on the river with a strong wind, and He shall smite the seven channels, so that men shall pass through it dry-shod. ¹⁶ And there shall be a passage for His people that are left in Egypt; and it shall be to Israel as the day when he came forth out of the land of Egypt.

¹⁶ And there shall be a passage for His people that are left in Egypt; and it shall be to Israel as the day when he came forth out of the land of Egypt.

¹⁰ God will give rest on this mountain, and the country of Moab shall be trodden down, as they tread the floor with wagons.

¹ In that day God shall bring His holy and great and strong sword upon the dragon, even the serpent that flees, upon the dragon, the crooked serpent; He shall destroy the dragon.

²² For my God is great; the Lord our judge shall not pass me by; the Lord is our prince, the Lord is our king; the Lord, He shall save us.

²³ Whom have you reproached and provoked? And against whom have you lifted up your voice? And have you not lifted up your eyes on high against the Holy One of Israel? ²⁴ For you have reproached the Lord by messengers; for you have said, With the multitude of chariots have I ascended to the height of mountains, and to the sides of Lebanon, and I have cropped the height of his cedars and the beauty of his cypresses, and I entered into the height of the forest region;

²⁹ And your wrath in which you have been enraged, and your rage has come up before Me; therefore I will put a hook in your nose, and a bit in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way which you came.

²⁷ Who says to the deep, You shall be dried up, and I will dry up the rivers.

¹⁷ Israel is saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation; they shall not be ashamed nor confounded forever.

²¹ And if they shall thirst, He shall lead them through the desert; He shall bring forth water to them out of the rock; the rock shall be split, and the water shall flow forth, and My people shall drink.

⁹ Awake, awake, O Jerusalem, and put on the strength of your arm; awake as in the early time, as the ancient generation. ¹⁰ Are you not the One that dried the sea, the water, even the abundance of the deep; that made the depths of the sea a way of passage for the delivered and redeemed? ¹¹ For by the help of the Lord they shall return, and come to Zion with joy and everlasting exaltation, for praise and joy shall come upon their head; pain, grief, and groaning have fled away.

⁵ And now why are you here? Thus says the Lord: Because My people were taken for nothing, wonder and howl. Thus says the Lord: On account of you My name is continually blasphemed among the Gentiles.

⁸ Who are these that fly as clouds, and as doves with young ones to Me?

⁴ And they shall build the old waste places, they shall raise up those that were before made desolate, and shall renew the desert cities, even those that had been desolate for many generations.

⁶ And on your walls, O Jerusalem, have I set watchmen all day and all night, who shall never cease making mention of the Lord. ⁷ For there is none like You, when He shall have established, and made Jerusalem a praise on the earth.

¹² And one shall call them the holy people, the redeemed of the Lord; and you shall be called a city sought out, and not forsaken.

³ I am full of trodden grapes, and of the nations there is not a man with Me; and I trampled them in My fury, and dashed them to pieces as earth, and brought down their blood to the earth. ⁴ For the day of recompense has come upon them, and the year of redemption is at hand. ⁵ And I looked, and there was no helper; and I observed, and none upheld; therefore My arm delivered them, and My anger drew near. ⁶ And I trampled them in My anger, and brought down their blood to the earth.

⁸ And He said, Is it not My people? The children surely will not be rebellious; and He became to them deliverance ⁹ out of all their affliction; not an ambassador, nor a messenger, but He Himself saved them, because He loved them and spared them; He Himself redeemed them, and took them up, and lifted them up all the days of old.

¹⁷ Why have You caused us to err, O Lord, from Your way? And have hardened our hearts, that we should not fear You? Return for Your servants' sake, for the sake of the tribes of Your inheritance,

¹⁰ The city of Your holiness has become desolate, Zion has become as a wilderness, Jerusalem a curse. ¹¹ The house, our sanctuary, and the glory which our fathers blessed, has been burned with fire; and all our glorious things have gone to ruin.

¹¹ The house, our sanctuary, and the glory which our fathers blessed, has been burned with fire; and all our glorious things have gone to ruin. ¹² And for all these things You, O Lord, have withheld Yourself, and have been silent, and have brought us very low.

¹ Strengthen yourselves, you children of Benjamin, to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and sound an alarm with the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a signal over Beth Haccerem; for evil threatens from the north, and a great destruction is coming. ² And your pride shall be taken away, O daughter of Zion. ³ The shepherds and their flocks shall come to her; and they shall pitch their tents against her round about, and shall feed their flocks, each with his hand. ⁴ Prepare yourselves for war against her; rise up, and let us go up against her at noon. Woe to us, for the day has gone down, and the shadows of the day fail. ⁵ Rise, and let us go up against her by night, and destroy her foundations.

¹⁶ Such is not the portion of Jacob; for He that formed all things, He is his inheritance; the Lord is His name.

¹ Woe to the shepherds that destroy and scatter the sheep of their pasture!

³⁷ Though the sky should be raised to a greater height, says the Lord, and though the ground of the earth should be sunk lower beneath, yet I will not cast off the family of Israel, says the Lord, for all that they have done.

¹¹ the voice of gladness, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of men saying, Give thanks to the Lord Almighty; for the Lord is good; for His mercy endures forever. And they shall bring gifts into the house of the Lord, for I will turn all the captivity of that land as before, said the Lord.

²² Their voice is as that of a hissing serpent, for they go upon the sand. They shall come upon Egypt with axes, as men that cut wood. ²³ They shall cut down her forest, says the Lord, for their number cannot at all be determined, for it exceeds the locust in multitude, and they are innumerable.

¹⁹ Not such is Jacob's portion; for He that formed all things, He is his inheritance; the Lord is His name.

¹³ and he burned the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all the houses of the city, and every great house he burned with fire.

¹⁰ ( { ι}) JOD. The oppressor has stretched out his hand on all her desirable things, for she has seen the Gentiles entering into her sanctuary, concerning whom You commanded that they should not enter into Your congregation.

² ( { α}) BETH. In the day of His wrath the Lord has overwhelmed her as in the sea, and not spared. He has brought down in His fury all the beautiful things of Jacob; He has brought down to the ground the strongholds of the daughter of Judah; He has profaned her kings and her princes. ³ ( { β}) GIMEL. He has broken in His fierce anger all the horn of Israel; He has turned back His right hand from the face of the enemy, and has kindled a flame in Jacob as a fire, and it has devoured all things round about.

⁷ ( { ζ}) ZAIN. The Lord has rejected His altar, He has cast off His sanctuary, He has broken by the hand of the enemy the wall of her palaces; they have uttered their voice in the house of the Lord as on a feast day.

⁹ ( { θ}) TETH. Her gates have sunk into the ground; He has destroyed and broken to pieces her bars, and her king and her prince among the Gentiles. There is no law; nay, her prophets have seen no vision from the Lord.

¹⁶ ( { ς}) AIN. All your enemies have opened their mouth against you; they have hissed and gnashed their teeth, and said, We have swallowed her up; surely this is the day which we looked for; we have found it, we have seen it.

²⁶ There shall be woe upon woe, and there shall be message upon message; and a vision shall be sought from a prophet, but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the elders.

¹² And I gave them My Sabbaths, that they should be for a sign between Me and them, that they should know that I am the Lord that sanctifies them.

²¹ Say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord: Behold, I will profane My sanctuary, the boast of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and for which your souls are concerned; and your sons and your daughters, whom you have left, shall fall by the sword.

³ and say, Thus says the Lord: Behold, I am against you O Pharaoh, the great dragon that lies in the midst of his rivers, that says, The rivers are mine, and I made them.

² Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say to him: You have become like a lion among the nations, and as a serpent that is in the sea; and you made assaults with your rivers, and troubled the waters with your feet, and trampled your rivers.

⁸ As I live, says the Lord God, surely because My sheep became a prey, and My sheep became meat to all the wild beasts of the field, because there were no shepherds, and the shepherds sought not out My sheep, and the shepherds fed themselves, but fed not My sheep,

³¹ you are My sheep, even the sheep of My flock, and I am the Lord your God, says the Lord God.

²⁷ He helps and delivers, and works signs and wonders in the heaven and on the earth, who has rescued Daniel from the power of the lions.

¹¹ And this shall be until the Chief Captain has delivered the captivity: and by reason of the horn the sacrifice was disturbed, and he prospered; and the holy place shall be made desolate. ¹² And a sin offering was given for the sacrifice, and righteousness was cast down to the ground; and he did all this, and prospered. ¹³ And I heard one saint speaking, and a saint said to a certain one speaking, How long shall the vision continue, even the removal of the sacrifice, and the bringing in of the sin of desolation; and how long shall the sanctuary and host be trampled? ¹⁴ And he said to him, Evening and morning there shall be two thousand three hundred days; and then the sanctuary shall be cleansed.

¹⁷ And now, O lord our God, hearken to the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, and cause Your face to shine on Your desolate sanctuary, for Your name's sake, O Lord.

²⁷ And one week shall establish the covenant with many. And in the midst of the week my sacrifice and drink offering shall be taken away: and on the temple shall be the abomination of desolations; and at the end of the time an end shall be put to the desolation.

³¹ And seeds shall spring up out of him, and they shall profane the sanctuary of strength, and they shall remove the perpetual sacrifice, and make the abomination of desolation.

² Rise, and go to Nineveh, the great city, and preach in it; for the cry of its wickedness has come up before Me. ³ For behold, the Lord comes forth out of His place, and will come down, and will go upon the high places of the earth.

⁶ therefore there shall be night to you instead of a vision, and there shall be to you darkness instead of prophecy; and the sun shall go down upon the prophets, and the day shall be dark upon them.

¹² Therefore on your account Zion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall be as a storehouse of fruits, and the mountain of the house as a grove of the forest.

⁹ Surely you bent your bow at scepters, says the Lord. Pause. The land of rivers shall be torn asunder.

¹² You will bring low the land with threatening, and in wrath You will break down the nations. ¹³ You went forth for the salvation of Your people, to save Your anointed: You shall bring death on the heads of transgressors; You have brought bands upon their neck. Pause. ¹⁴ You thrust through the heads of princes with amazement, they shall tremble in it; they shall burst their bridles, they shall be as a poor man devouring in secret.

¹² And I will leave in you a meek and lowly people;

²³ And Jesus went about all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every illness among the people.

⁴⁵ so that you may prove to be sons of your Father in heaven; because He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and He sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

¹⁵ "Therefore when you see the 'abomination of desolation,' spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place" (whoever reads, let him understand),

¹⁷ And He was teaching, saying to them, "Is it not written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations'? But you have made it a 'den of thieves!' "

⁷² to perform the mercy promised to our fathers and to remember His holy covenant, ⁷³ the oath which He swore to our father Abraham: ⁷⁴ to grant us that we, being delivered from the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear, ⁷⁵ in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.

³² Do not fear, little flock, because your Father is well pleased to give to you the kingdom.

²⁶ But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, just as I said to you. ²⁷ My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. ²⁸ And I give to them eternal life, and they shall never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand. ²⁹ My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand. ³⁰ I and the Father are one."

¹⁷ And yet He did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, giving to you rains from heaven and fruitbearing seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

²⁶ And He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell upon all the face of the earth, and He ordained their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings,

²⁹ having been filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, greed, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness; they are whisperers, ³⁰ slanderers, hateful to God, insolent men, proud, braggarts, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, ³¹ without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;

¹ I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. ² God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says in Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying,

¹⁷ This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, ¹⁸ having been darkened in understanding, being estranged from the life of God, because of the ignorance which is in them, because of the hardness of their heart;

¹⁴ who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself a people as His own possession, zealous for good works.

⁴ God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?

⁹ And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; because You were slain, and You redeemed us to God by Your blood, out of every tribe and language and people and nation;

² But leave out the outer court of the temple, and do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. And they shall trample the holy city for forty-two months.

⁶ Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.

¹² Then the sixth one poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared.
