1 How the Lord in his wrathhas abhorred daughter Zion,Casting down from heaven to earththe glory of Israel,Not remembering his footstoolon the day of his wrath!
2 The Lord has devoured without pityall of Jacob’s dwellings;In his fury he has razeddaughter Judah’s defenses,Has brought to the ground in dishonora kingdom and its princes.
3 In blazing wrath, he cut down entirelythe horn of Israel;He withdrew the support of his right handwhen the enemy approached;He burned against Jacob like a blazing firethat consumes everything in its path.
4 He bent his bow like an enemy;the arrow in his right handLike a foe, he killedall those held precious;On the tent of daughter Zionhe poured out his wrath like fire.
