In the days of her affliction and homelessness Jerusalem remembers all her treasures That were hers since the days of old, When her people fell into the hand of the adversary And no one helped her. The adversaries saw her, They laughed at her ruin.

God’s Anger over Israel

How the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion With a cloud in His anger! He has hurled The glory of Israel from heaven to earth, And has not remembered His footstool In the day of His anger.

Hope of Relief in God’s Mercy

Remember my misery and my homelessness, the wormwood and bitterness.

My soul certainly remembers, And is bent over within me.

A Prayer for Mercy

Remember, Lord, what has come upon us; Look, and see our disgrace!
