4. He has bent his bow like an enemy.He has stood with his right hand as an adversary.Has killed all that were pleasant to the eye.In the tent of the daughter of Zion, he has poured out his wrath like fire.
5. The Lord has become as an enemy.He has swallowed up Israel.He has swallowed up all her palaces.He has destroyed his strongholds.He has multiplied mourning and lamentation in the daughter of Judah.
6. He has violently taken away his tabernacle,as if it were of a garden.He has destroyed his place of assembly.The Lord has caused solemn assembly and Sabbath to be forgotten in Zion.In the indignation of his anger, he has despised the king and the priest.
7. The Lord has cast off his altar.He has abhorred his sanctuary.He has given the walls of her palaces into the hand of the enemy.They have made a noise in the Lord’s house,as in the day of a solemn assembly.
8. The Lord has purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion.He has stretched out the line.He has not withdrawn his hand from destroying;He has made the rampart and wall lament.They languish together.
