4 Thine adversaries have roared in the midst of thine       assembly; They have set up their ensigns for signs.
         
                                
                        5 They seemed as men that lifted up Axes upon a thicket of trees.
         
                                
                        6 And now all the carved work thereof They break down with hatchet and hammers.
         
                                
                        7 They have set thy sanctuary on fire; They have profaned the dwelling-place of thy name [by casting       it] to the ground.
         
                                
                        8 They said in their heart, Let us make havoc of them       altogether: They have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
         
                                
                        9 We see not our signs: There is no more any prophet; Neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.
         
                                
                        10 How long, O God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?
