2 The dead bodies of Thy avadim have they given to be food unto the oph HaShomayim, the basar of Thy Chasidim, unto the beasts of the earth.
3 Their shefach dahm (shedding of blood) is like mayim all around Yerushalayim; and there is none to bury them.
4 We are become a reproach to our shekhenim (neighbors), a scorn and derision to them that are around us.
5 How long, Hashem? Wilt Thou be angry lanetzach (forever)? Shall Thy kina (jealousy) burn like eish?
6 Pour out Thy wrath upon the Goyim that have no da'as of Thee, and upon the mamlachot that have not called upon Thy Shem.
7 For they have devoured Ya'akov, and laid waste his naveh (home).
8 O remember not against us avonot rishonim (former iniquities); let Thy rachamim speedily come to us; for we are brought very low.
