1. How the Lord has covered the daughter of ZionWith a cloud in His anger!He cast down from heaven to the earthThe beauty of Israel,And did not remember His footstoolIn the day of His anger.
2. The Lord has swallowed up and has not pitiedAll the dwelling places of Jacob.He has thrown down in His wrathThe strongholds of the daughter of Judah;He has brought them down to the ground;He has profaned the kingdom and its princes.
