Lamentations 2:3-5

Christian Standard Bible

³ He has cut off every horn^(A) of Israel
in his burning anger
and withdrawn his right hand^(B)
in the presence of the enemy.
He has blazed against Jacob like a flaming fire
that consumes everything.^(C)

⁴ He has strung his bow like an enemy;^(D)
his right hand is positioned like an adversary.
He has killed everyone who was the delight to the eye,^(E)
pouring out his wrath like fire
on the tent of Daughter Zion.

⁵ The Lord is like an enemy;
he has swallowed up Israel.
He swallowed up all its palaces
and destroyed its fortified cities.
He has multiplied mourning and lamentation
within Daughter Judah.^(F)
