16. The crown has fallen from our head. Woe to us, for we have sinned.
17. Because of this, our heart became gloomy; for this reason, our eyes have been darkened:
18. because of mount Zion, because it was ruined. Foxes have wandered upon it.
19. But you, O Lord, shall remain for eternity, your throne from generation to generation.
20. Why would you forget us forever? Why would you forsake us for a long time?
21. Convert us, O Lord, to you, and we shall be converted. Renew our days, as from the beginning.
22. But you have utterly rejected us; you are vehemently angry against us.
