2 They left the bodies of your people for the vultures,the bodies of your servants for wild animals to eat.
3 They shed your people's blood like water;blood flowed like water all through Jerusalem,and no one was left to bury the dead.
4 The surrounding nations insult us;they laugh at us and mock us.
5 Lord, will you be angry with us for ever?Will your anger continue to burn like fire?
6 Turn your anger on the nations that do not worship you,on the people who do not pray to you.
7 For they have killed your people;they have ruined your country.
8 Do not punish us for the sins of our ancestors.Have mercy on us now;we have lost all hope.
