¹⁶ To make their land a ^(A)desolation,
An object of perpetual ^(B)hissing;
Everyone who passes by it will be astonished
And ^(C)shake his head.

¹⁵ All who pass along the way
^(A)Clap their hands in derision at you;
They ^(B)hiss and shake their heads
At the daughter of Jerusalem,
“Is this the city of which they said,
‘^(C)The perfection of beauty,
^(D)A joy to all the earth’?”
