one of the Psalms of the Exile

Psalm 79 laments the destruction of [[Jerusalem]], and yet remains [[faith]]ful to [[God]].

Psalm 79 is one of the Psalms of the Exile, which also include Psalms 44, 74, 80, 85, 89, 102, 106, 123, and 137.<ref>http://seachurchesmedia.org/seachurches/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Day-126-PSALMS-OF-THE-EXILE-Psalm-44-Psalm-74-Psalm-79-Psalm-80-Psalm-85-Psalm-89-Psalm-102-Psalm-106-Psalm-123-Psalm-137-September-19.pdf</ref>

After admitting at verse 8 that "we are brought very low," the Psalm concludes with this plea:<ref>Psalm 79:12-13 ([[NASB]]).</ref>
{{cquote|And return to our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom
The reproach with which they have reproached You, O [[Lord]].
<br>So we Your people and the sheep of Your pasture
<br>Will give thanks to You forever;
<br>To all generations we will tell of Your praise.}}
