To whom have You done this?

The children [a]they have cuddled?
Should the priest and prophet be slain
In the sanctuary of the Lord?

On the ground in the streets;
My virgins and my young men
Have fallen by the (C)sword;
You have slain them in the day of Your anger,
You have slaughtered and not pitied.

(D)The terrors that surround me.
In the day of the Lord’s anger
There was no refugee or survivor.
(E)Those whom I have borne and brought up
My enemies have (F)destroyed.”
