Zion, our portion of heaven on earth, is no longer protected;
    Jerusalem stands like a watchman’s shelter in a vineyard,
Like a hut in a melon field,
    like a city assaulted and besieged.

Except for the fraction of us who hang on
    by the grace of the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies,
We’d be destroyed and deserted
    like Sodom and Gomorrah, utterly done in.[a]

10 Listen to the word of the Eternal One,
    you rulers of Sodom!
Attend to God’s instructions,
    citizens of Gomorrah!
