clap their hands at you;

at daughter Jerusalem:
“Is this the city that was called
the perfection of beauty,
the joy of all the earth?”(A)

open their mouths against you;
they hiss, they gnash their teeth,
they cry: “We have devoured her!
Ah, this is the day we longed for;
at last we have seen it!”(B)

he has carried out his threat;
as he ordained long ago,
he has demolished without pity;
he has made the enemy rejoice over you
and exalted the might of your foes.(C)
