In context

6Pour out Your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge You, on the kingdoms that refuse to call on Your name,

7For they have devoured Jacob and devastated his homeland.

8Do not hold past sins against us; let Your compassion come quickly, for we are brought low.

9Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Your name; deliver us and atone for our sins, for the sake of Your name.

10Why should the nations ask, “Where is their God?” Before our eyes, make known among the nations Your vengeance for the bloodshed of Your servants.
