10 The adversary has stretched out his hand
Over all her precious things,
For she has seen the (A)nations enter her sanctuary,
The ones whom You commanded
That they were (B)not to enter Your congregation.
11 All her people groan, (C)seeking bread;
They have given their treasures for food
To (D)restore their [a]lives.
“See, Lord, and look,
For I am (E)despised.”

10 The adversary seized in his hands
    everything she valued.
She watched the nations[a]
    enter her sanctuary;
those you forbade to enter
    your place of meeting.

11 All her people groaned
    as they searched for food.
They traded their valuables in order to eat,
    to keep themselves alive.[b]
Look, Lord, and see
    how I have become dishonored.
