Psalm 77:60-72 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

60. And he rejected the tabernacle of Shiloh, his tabernacle where he had dwelt among men.

61. And he delivered their virtue into captivity, and their beauty into the hands of the enemy.

62. And he enclosed his people with the sword, and he spurned his inheritance.

63. Fire consumed their young men, and their virgins were not lamented.

64. Their priests fell by the sword, and their widows did not weep.

65. And the Lord was awaked, as if out of sleep, and like a powerful man impaired by wine.

66. And he struck his enemies on the back. He gave them over to everlasting disgrace.

67. And he rejected the tabernacle of Joseph, and he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim.

68. But he chose the tribe of Judah: mount Zion, which he loved.

69. And he built up his sanctuary, like a single-horned beast, in the land that he founded for all ages.

70. And he chose his servant David, and he took him from the flocks of the sheep: he received him from following the ewes with their young,

71. in order to pasture Jacob his servant and Israel his inheritance.

72. And he fed them with the innocence of his heart. And he led them with the understanding of his hands.
