Psalm 74:16 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 74.

12 Yet God is my King from ancient times, working salvation on the earth.

13 You divided the sea by Your strength; You smashed the heads of the dragons of the sea;

14 You crushed the heads of Leviathan; You fed him to the creatures of the desert.

15 You broke open the fountain and the flood; You dried up the ever-flowing rivers.

16 The day is Yours, and also the night; You established the moon and the sun.

17 You set all the boundaries of the earth; You made the summer and winter.

18 Remember how the enemy has mocked You, O LORD, how a foolish people has spurned Your name.

19 Do not deliver the soul of Your dove to beasts; do not forget the lives of Your afflicted forever.

20 Consider Your covenant, for haunts of violence fill the dark places of the land.
