1. Oh, no!In anger, my Lord put Daughter Zion under a cloud;he threw Israel’s glory from heaven down to earth.On that day of wrath, he didn’t consider his own footstool.
2. Showing no compassion, my Lord devoured each of Jacob’s meadows;in his wrath he tore down the walled cities of Daughter Judah.The kingdom and its officials, he forced to the ground, shamed.
3. In his burning rage, he cut off each of Israel’s horns;right in front of the enemy, he withdrew his strong hand;he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire that ate up everything nearby.
4. He bent his bow as an enemy would; his strong hand was poised like an adversary.He killed every precious thing in sight;he poured out his wrath like fire on Daughter Zion’s tent.
