Psalms 74:1-2
Psalms 74:1-3 The Message (MSG)
You walked off and left us, and never looked back. God, how could you do that? We’re your very own sheep; how can you stomp off in anger? Refresh your memory of us—you bought us a long time ago. Your most precious tribe—you paid a good price for us! Your very own Mount Zion—you actually lived here once! Come and visit the site of disaster, see how they’ve wrecked the sanctuary.
Psalms 74:1-2 King James Version (KJV)
O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? Why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture? Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; The rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed
Psalms 74:1-2 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

Are you really going to leave us, God? Would you turn your back on us, rejecting your people? We are yours, your very own. Will your anger smolder against us forever?

You brought us out of our slavery and bondage and made us your favored ones, your Zion-people, your home on earth.
