1. Look how the Lord in his angerhas brought Jerusalem to shame.He has thrown down the greatness of Israelfrom the sky to the earth;he did not remember the Temple, his footstool,on the day of his anger.
2. The Lord swallowed up without mercyall the houses of the people of Jacob;in his anger he pulled downthe strong places of Judah.He threw her kingdom and its rulersdown to the ground in dishonor.
