Lamentations 2:4-7
English Standard Version
4 (A)He has bent his bow like an enemy,
with his right hand set (B)like a foe;
and he has killed all who were delightful in our eyes
in the tent of the daughter of Zion;
he has poured out his fury like fire.
5 (C)The Lord has become like an enemy;
(D)he has swallowed up Israel;
(E)he has swallowed up all its palaces;
he has laid in ruins its strongholds,
and he has multiplied in the daughter of Judah
(F)mourning and lamentation.
6 He has laid waste his booth like a garden,
laid in ruins (G)his meeting place;
(H)the Lord has made Zion forget
festival and (I)Sabbath,
and in his fierce indignation has spurned king and priest.
7 (J)The Lord has scorned his altar,
(K)disowned his sanctuary;
(L)he has delivered into the hand of the enemy
the walls of her palaces;
(M)they raised a clamor in the house of the Lord
as on the day of festival.
Psalm 79:1-3
English Standard Version
How Long, O Lord?
A Psalm of (A)Asaph.
79 O God, (B)the nations have come into your (C)inheritance;
they have defiled your (D)holy temple;
they have (E)laid Jerusalem in ruins.
2 They have given (F)the bodies of your servants
to the birds of the heavens for food,
the flesh of your (G)faithful to (H)the beasts of the earth.
3 They have poured out their blood like water
all around Jerusalem,
and there was (I)no one to bury them.
