Lamentations 2:1-3

The Prophet Speaks Out: The Lord Destroyed Zion
2 [a]“Look how Adonay has covered the people of Zion
with the cloud of his anger!
He has thrown down Israel’s beauty from heaven to earth.
He didn’t even remember his footstool on the day of his anger.
2 Adonay swallowed up all of Jacob’s pastures without any pity.
He tore down the fortified cities of Judah in his fury.
He brought the kingdom of Judah and its leaders
down to the ground in dishonor.
3 In his burning anger he cut off all of Israel’s strength.
He withdrew his right hand when they faced their enemy.
He burned like a raging fire in the land of Jacob,
destroying everything around him.
