reduced
Jerusalem to
rubble.

have come
into
Thy
inheritance ,
They have defiled Thy
holy temple ,
They

Jerusalem become
heaps,
They have
given
the corpses
of Your
servants as
food to
the birds
of the air
, the flesh of Your
saints to
the beasts
of the earth.

the dead
bodies
of Thy
servants Food for
the fowls
of the heavens

water all
around
Jerusalem, and there is no
one
to
bury
the
dead

around
us

angry forever
? Will
Your
jealousy burn like
fire ?

when
, O Jehovah
? art
Thou
angry for
ever
? Thy
jealousy doth

Your
wrath
on the nations that
do
not acknowledge
You
, on the
kingdoms that refuse
to
call
on
Your
name ,
Pour Thy
fury
on the nations who
have
not known

made

not hold
past
sins
against
us ;
let Your
compassion

quickly

brought
low
.
Remember
not for
us the
iniquities
of
forefathers,
Haste,
let Thy
mercies
go
before
us
, For we have
been
very
weak
.
Help us, O God of our salvation, for
the glory
of Your
name ;
deliver us and atone
for
our sins, for the
sake of
Your
name
.
Help us, O God of our salvation, Because
of
the honour
of Thy
name ,
And
deliver us ,

the nations
Your
vengeance for
the bloodshed
of Your
servants.

is
shed

the groans

condemned
to
death.

the groaning
of the prisoner
come
in
before
Thee,
According
to
the greatness

death.

back into
the
laps
of
our neighbors
sevenfold the
reproach they hurled
at
You
, O Lord.
And
turn
Thou
back to
our neighbours,
Sevenfold unto
their
bosom,
their
reproach ,

of Your
pasture, will
thank
You
forever;
from
generation
to generation
we will
declare
Your
praise .
And
we ,
Thy
people, and

of Thy
pasture, We
give
thanks
to Thee
to
the
age,
To
all
generations
we recount
Thy
praise !
