6. From the daughter of Zionall her beauty has departed.Her princes have become like deerthat find no pasture;they fled without strengthbefore the pursuer.
7. In the days of her affliction and miseryJerusalem remembers all her pleasant thingsthat she had in the days of old.When her people fell into the hand of the enemy,there was no one to help her.The adversaries saw herand mocked at her desolation.
8. Jerusalem has sinned grievously;therefore she has become vile.All who honored her despise her,for they have seen her nakedness;she herself sighsand turns away.
9. Her uncleanness is in her skirts;she took no thought of her future;therefore her fall is astounding;she has no comforter.“O Lord, look upon my affliction,for the enemy has triumphed!”
10. The adversary has spread his handover all her precious things;for she has seen the nationsenter her sanctuary,those whom You commandednot to enter Your congregation.
