6 All majesty has departed from the daughter of Zion.Her princes have become like deer that find no pasture.They have gone without strength before the pursuer.
7 Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and of her miseriesall her pleasant things that were from the days of old;when her people fell into the hand of the adversary,and no one helped her.The adversaries saw her.They mocked at her desolations.
8 Jerusalem has grievously sinned.Therefore she has become unclean.All who honored her despise her,because they have seen her nakedness.Yes, she sighs, and turns backward.
9 Her filthiness was in her skirts.She didn’t remember her latter end.Therefore she has come down astoundingly.She has no comforter.“See, Lord, my affliction;for the enemy has magnified himself.”
10 The adversary has spread out his hand on all her pleasant things;for she has seen that the nations have entered into her sanctuary,concerning whom you commanded that they should not enter into your assembly.
11 All her people sigh.They seek bread.They have given their pleasant things for food to refresh their soul.“Look, Lord, and see;for I have become despised.”
12 “Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by?Look, and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow,which is brought on me,with which the Lord has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
