1. Our God, why have youcompletely rejected us?Why are you so angrywith the ones you care for?
2. Remember the peopleyou rescued long ago,the tribe you choseto be your very own.Think of Mount Zion,your home;
3. walk over to the templeleft in ruins for everby those who hate us.
4. Your enemies roared like lionsin your holy temple,and they have placedtheir banners there.
5. It looks like a forestchopped to pieces.
6. They used axes and hatchetsto smash the carvings.
7. They burnt down your templeand badly disgraced it.
8. They said to themselves,“We'll crush them!”Then they burnt every oneof your meeting placesall over the country.
9. There are no more miraclesand no more prophets.Who knows how longit will be like this?
10. Our God, how much longerwill our enemies sneer?Won't they ever stopinsulting you?
