  • Lamentations 2:1-5
    How the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion
    With a cloud in His anger!
    He cast down from heaven to the earth
    The beauty of Israel,
    And did not remember His footstool
    In the day of His anger.
    The Lord has swallowed up and has not pitied
    All the dwelling places of Jacob.
    He has thrown down in His wrath
    The strongholds of the daughter of Judah;
    He has brought them down to the ground;
    He has profaned the kingdom and its princes.
    He has cut off in fierce anger
    Every horn of Israel;
    He has drawn back His right hand
    From before the enemy.
    He has blazed against Jacob like a flaming fire
    Devouring all around.
    Standing like an enemy, He has bent His bow;
    With His right hand, like an adversary,
    He has slain all who were pleasing to His eye;
    On the tent of the daughter of Zion,
    He has poured out His fury like fire.
    The Lord was like an enemy.

    He has swallowed up all her palaces;
    He has destroyed her strongholds,
    And has increased mourning and lamentation
    In the daughter of Judah.
