9 Do not be wrathful beyond measure, O Lord,nor remember iniquity forever;look upon us, we pray,we all are Your people.
10 Your holy cities are a wilderness;Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11 Our holy and beautiful house where our fathers praised Youis burned up with fire;and all our precious things are laid waste.
12 Will You refrain Yourself from these things, O Lord?Will You hold Your peace and afflict us beyond measure?
