Lamentations 2:15-17
15All that passH5674 by clapH5606 their handsH3709 at theeH1870; they hissH8319 and wagH5128 their headH7218 at the daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389, saying, Is this the cityH5892 that men callH559 The perfectionH3632 of beautyH3308, The joyH4885 of the whole earthH776?1
16All thine enemiesH341 have openedH6475 their mouthH6310 against thee: they hissH8319 and gnashH2786 the teethH8127: they sayH559, We have swallowed her upH1104: certainlyH389 this is the dayH3117 that we looked forH6960; we have foundH4672, we have seenH7200 it.
17YhwhH3068 hath doneH6213 that which he had devisedH2161; he hath fulfilledH1214 his wordH565 that he had commandedH6680 in the daysH3117 of oldH6924: he hath thrown downH2040, and hath not pitiedH2550: and he hath caused thine enemyH341 to rejoiceH8055 over thee, he hath set upH7311 the hornH7161 of thine adversariesH6862.
