1The nationsH1471, O GodH430, have invadedH935 Your inheritanceH5159;they have defiledH2930 Your holyH6944 templeH1964and reducedH7760 JerusalemH3389 to rubbleH5856.2They have givenH5414 the corpsesH5038 of Your servantsH5650as foodH3978 to the birdsH5775 of the airH8064,the fleshH1320 of Your saintsH2623 to the beastsH2416 of the earthH776.3They have poured outH8210 their bloodH1818 like waterH4325all aroundH5439 JerusalemH3389,and there is no oneH369 to buryH6912 the dead.4We have becomeH1961 a reproachH2781 to our neighborsH7934,a scornH3933 and derisionH7047 to those around usH5439.
