Berean Standard Bible
How doth
the Lord cloud
in
His
anger
the daughter of Zion ,
He hath
cast from heaven `
to '
earth the
beauty
of
Israel,
And
hath
not
remembered
His footstool in the day of His anger.
How the Lord has
covered
the Daughter of Zion with
the
cloud
of
His
anger!
He has
cast the
glory
of
Israel
from heaven to earth .
He
has
abandoned
His footstool in the day of His anger.
Swallowed
up
hath
the Lord ,
He
hath
not
pitied
any
of
the pleasant
places
of Jacob ,
He
hath
broken
down
in His wrath The fortresses
of the daughter of Judah ,
He hath
caused
to
come
to the earth,
He
polluted
the
kingdom and its princes.
Without
pity
the Lord has
swallowed
up
all
the dwellings
of Jacob .
In His wrath He
has
demolished
the fortified
cities
of the Daughter of Judah .
He brought
to the ground
and
defiled
her
kingdom and its princes.
He hath
cut off in
the
heat
of
anger
every horn of Israel ,
He
hath
turned
backward
His right hand From
the face
of the enemy ,
And
He burneth
against
Jacob as
a flaming fire ,
It hath
devoured
round
about
.
In
fierce
anger
He has
cut off every horn of Israel and
withdrawn
His right hand at
the approach
of the enemy .
He has
burned
in
Jacob like
a flaming fire that
consumes
everything
around
it.
He hath
trodden
His bow as
an enemy ,
Stood
hath
His right hand as
an
adversary,
And
He slayeth
all the
desirable
ones
of
the eye ,
In
the tent of the daughter of Zion ,
He
hath
poured
out
as
fire
His
fury
.
He has
bent
His bow like
an enemy ;
His right hand is
positioned.
Like
a
foe
He has
killed
all who
were
pleasing
to
the eye ;
He
has
poured
out
His
wrath
like
fire
on
the tent of the Daughter of Zion.
The Lord hath
been
as
an enemy ,
He hath
swallowed up Israel ,
He hath
swallowed up all her palaces ,
He
hath
destroyed
His
fortresses,
And He multiplieth
in
the daughter of Judah Mourning
and
moaning
.
The Lord is
like
an enemy ;
He has
swallowed up Israel .
He has
swallowed up all her palaces and destroyed
her
strongholds.
He has
multiplied
mourning
and
lamentation
for
the Daughter of Judah.
And
He shaketh
as
a
garden
His tabernacle ,
He hath
destroyed His appointed
place ,
Jehovah
hath
forgotten
in
Zion
the appointed time
and
sabbath,
And despiseth,
in the
indignation
of
His anger ,
king and priest.
He has
laid
waste
His tabernacle like
a
garden
booth;
He has
destroyed His place of
meeting.
The LORD
has
made
Zion
forget
her
appointed feasts
and Sabbaths.
In His fierce
anger He
has
despised
both
king and priest.
The Lord hath
cast
off
His altar ,
He hath
rejected
His sanctuary ,
He hath
shut
up
into the hand of the enemy The
walls
of
her
palaces,
A
noise
they have made
in the house of Jehovah
Like
a
day of appointment
.
The Lord has
rejected
His altar ;
He has
abandoned
His sanctuary ;
He has
delivered
the
walls
of
her
palaces
into the hand of the enemy .
They have raised
a
shout
in the house of the
LORD
as
on
the
day of an
appointed
feast
.
Devised
hath
Jehovah
to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion ,
He hath
stretched out a line ,
He
hath
not turned
His hand from destroying ,
And
He causeth
bulwark
and wall
to
mourn,
Together --
they have
been
weak
.
The
LORD
determined
to destroy the wall of the Daughter of Zion .
He stretched out a measuring
line and
did
not withdraw
His hand from destroying .
He made
the
ramparts
and walls
lament;
together they waste
away
.
Sunk into the earth
have
her
gates,
He hath
destroyed and broken
her
bars ,
Her king and her princes `
are '
among the nations, There
is no law
, also
her prophets Have
not
found
vision from Jehovah
.
Her
gates
have
sunk into the ground;
He has
destroyed and shattered
their
bars .
Her king and her princes are exiled
among the nations, the
law
is no more
, and
even
her prophets find
no
vision from the
LORD
.
Sit
on
the earth
--
keep
silent
do
the
elders of the daughter of Zion ,
They have caused
dust to
go
up
on their head,
They
have
girded
on sackcloth ,
Put
down
to
the
earth
their
head
have
the virgins
of Jerusalem.
The elders of the Daughter of Zion sit
on
the
ground
in
silence.
They have thrown
dust on their heads
and
put
on sackcloth .
The young
women
of Jerusalem have
bowed
their
heads
to
the
ground
.
Consumed
by
tears
have
been
my eyes ,
Troubled
have
been
my bowels,
Poured out to
the
earth
hath
been
my
liver,
For
the breach
of the daughter of my people ;
In
infant
and
suckling
being
feeble
, In the broad
places
of the city ,
My eyes fail
from
weeping;
I
am
churning
within.
My heart
is
poured out in
grief
over
the destruction
of the daughter of my people, because
children
and
infants
faint
in the streets
of the city .
To their mothers they
say,
`
Where `are'
corn
and wine? '
In
their
becoming
feeble
as a
pierced
one
In the broad
places
of the city, In
their soul
pouring
itself
out
into
the bosom
of their mothers.
They
cry
out
to their mothers :
“
Where is
the
grain
and wine? ”
as they
faint
like
the
wounded
in the streets
of the city, as
their lives
fade
away
in
the arms
of their mothers.
What do
I testify
`
to '
thee,
what do
I liken
to
thee
, O daughter of Jerusalem? What do
I equal
to
thee
, and
I comfort
thee
, O virgin daughter of Zion? For great
as a
sea `is'
thy
breach,
Who doth
give
healing
to
thee
?
What can
I say
for
you?
To what can
I compare
you
, O Daughter of Jerusalem? To
what can
I liken
you
, that
I may
console
you
, O Virgin Daughter of Zion? For your
wound
is
as deep
as
the
sea .
Who can
ever
heal
you
?
Thy
prophets have
seen
for
thee
a
false
and
insipid
thing,
And have
not revealed
concerning
thine
iniquity,
To turn
back
thy
captivity ,
And
they see
for thee
false
burdens
and causes
of
expulsion
.
The
visions
of
your
prophets were
empty
and deceptive;
they
did
not expose
your
guilt
to ward
off
your
captivity .
The
burdens
they envisioned
for you
were
empty
and misleading
.
Clapped
hands
at
thee
have
all passing
by the
way,
They have
hissed
--
and they
shake the
head
At the daughter of Jerusalem: `
Is this the city of
which
they
said:
The perfection of beauty, a
joy to
all the land
? '
All who
pass
by clap
their
hands
at
you
in
scorn.
They hiss
and shake their
heads
at the Daughter of Jerusalem: “
Is this the city that
was
called
the perfection of beauty, the
joy of
all the earth
? ”
Opened
against
thee
their
mouth
have
all thine
enemies ,
They
have
hissed,
yea,
they gnash the
teeth, They
have
said:
`
We have swallowed `
her '
up ,
Surely
this `
is '
the day that
we
looked
for ,
We have found
--
we have seen.'
All your
enemies open
their
mouths
against
you.
They hiss
and
gnash their
teeth, saying,
“
We have swallowed her up .
This is the day for which
we have waited.
We have lived
to
see
it!”
Jehovah
hath
done that
which
He devised,
He hath
fulfilled
His saying
That
He commanded
from
the
days of old ,
He hath
broken
down
and
hath
not
pitied,
And
causeth
an
enemy to
rejoice
over thee,
He
lifted
up
the horn of thine
adversaries
.
The
LORD
has
done what
He planned;
He has
accomplished
His decree,
which
He ordained
in
days of old ;
He has
overthrown
you
without
pity.
He
has
let
the
enemy gloat
over you
and
exalted
the horn of your
foes
.
Cried
hath
their
heart
unto
the Lord ;
O wall of the daughter of Zion, Cause
to
go
down as
a stream
tears
daily
and nightly,
Give not
rest
to
thyself
, Let
not
the
daughter
of
thine
eye
stand
still
.
The hearts
of
the
people
cry
out
to
the
Lord .
O wall of the Daughter of Zion, let
your
tears
run
down like
a river
day
and night.
Give yourself
no
relief
, and
your
eyes
no
rest
.
Arise, cry aloud
in the night ,
At
the beginning
of the watches
. Pour out as
water
thy
heart ,
Over
against
the face
of the Lord ,
Lift up unto
Him
thy
hands ,
for the soul
of thine
infants,
Who are feeble
with
hunger at
the head
of all
out-places
.
Arise, cry out
in the night from
the first
watch
of the night
. Pour out your
heart like
water
in
the presence
of the Lord .
Lift up your
hands to
Him
for the lives
of your
children
who are fainting
from
hunger on
the corner
of every
street
.
See
, O Jehovah
, and look
attentively,
To
whom Thou
hast
acted
thus,
Do
women eat their fruit
, infants of
a
handbreadth
? Slain
in the sanctuary of the Lord are
priest
and
prophet
?
Look
, O LORD
, and consider:
Whom have
You
ever
treated
like
this?
Should
women eat their offspring
, the
infants they
have
nurtured
? Should
priests
and
prophets
be
killed
in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Lain
on
the
earth
`in'
out-places
have
young and old ,
My
virgins
and
my young men have fallen by the sword ,
Thou
hast
slain in a
day of Thine
anger ,
Thou
hast
slaughtered --
Thou
hast
not
pitied
.
Both
young and old lie
together
in
the
dust
of
the
streets.
My young men and
maidens
have fallen by the sword .
You
have
slain them
in the
day of Your
anger ;
You
have
slaughtered them
without
compassion
.
Thou
dost
call
as `at'
a
day of appointment,
My
fears
from
round
about,
And
there
hath
not
been
in the day of the anger of
Jehovah,
An
escaped
and
remaining
one ,
They
whom
I
stretched
out
and
nourished,
My enemy hath
consumed!
You
summoned
my
attackers
on
every
side,
as for
the
day of an
appointed
feast.
In the day of the LORD’s
anger no
one escaped
or
survived;
my enemy has
destroyed
those
I
nurtured
and
reared.
