NET Bible
"And now they are tearing down all its engravings with axes and crowbars."
— Psalms 74:6, NET Bible
“But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.”
“And now all the carved work thereof They break down with hatchet and hammers. ”
“Now they break all its carved work down with hatchet and hammers.”
“Lift not up your horn on high: speak not iniquity against God.”
“Your doors are broken down with hammers and iron blades.”
“But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.”
Hurry to the permanent ruins, and to all the damage the enemy has done to the temple!
Your enemies roar in the middle of your sanctuary; they set up their battle flags.
They invade like lumberjacks swinging their axes in a thick forest.
And now they are tearing down all its engravings with axes and crowbars.
They set your sanctuary on fire; they desecrate your dwelling place by knocking it to the ground.
They say to themselves,“We will oppress all of them.” They burn down all the places where people worship God in the land.
We do not see any signs of God’s presence; there are no longer any prophets and we have no one to tell us how long this will last.
