Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy servants which is shed.
¿Por qué han de preguntar las naciones: 'Dónde está su Dios?' Que Dios se manifieste ante estas naciones delante de nuestros ojos vengando la sangre derramada de tus siervos.
El salmista pide que Dios se revele a las naciones vengando la sangre de su pueblo para que no cuestionen su existencia.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Psalm 79 is a lament attributed to Asaph, likely written during the Babylonian invasion of Jerusalem around 586 BC, when the city was destroyed and God's people faced brutal oppression from pagan nations. In this verse, the psalmist pleads for God to demonstrate His justice by avenging the bloodshed of His servants, countering the mockery of the heathen who questioned God's power. This reflects the ancient cultural mindset where a nation's defeats were seen as evidence of their god's weakness.
