What does Psalms Chapter 73 say, and which statements belong to its speaker?

The Latin incipit is Ut quid, Deus. The heading describes church persecution. Understanding for Asaph begins by asking why God cast them off and wrath burned against pasture's sheep. The speaker asks remembrance of redeemed congregation, inheritance and Sion, lifting hands against sanctuary wickedness. Haters boasted in solemnity and set ensigns. The separate note interprets colors on gates and temple top, disregard of sanctity and prophecy of Machabees and Antiochus.

Axes and hatchets cut gates like wood's trees; sanctuary was fired and name's dwelling defiled. The enemies said to abolish festival days; the plan is not converted into completed abolition. The speaker has not seen signs and says there is no prophet, asks how long reproach and why God's hand is turned away. He recalls God king before ages and salvation in earth's midst, made sea firm and crushed dragons. A separate note interprets Red Sea walls, Israel's passage, cruel Egyptians and king destroyed with corpses stripped by Ethiopians on Arabia's coast.

Dragon heads were broken and given for Ethiopians' food. Fountains and torrents broken and Ethan rivers dried receive a note explaining strong streams and verification in Jordan and Arnon. God's day, night, morning light, sun, borders, summer and spring are recalled. He asks remembrance of reproach, no surrender of confessors to beasts or permanent forgetting of poor, and regard for covenant. The obscure earth dwellers' houses of iniquity receive a separate note about unjustly acquired estates. He asks humble people not shamed, anticipating needy praise, and asks God arise and judge His cause, remembering reproaches, enemy voices and continually rising pride. No completed recovery or guarantee of rescue is narrated.
