⁷ In the days of her affliction and roaming,
Jerusalem ^(A)remembers all her pleasant things
That she had in the days of old.
When her people fell into the hand of the enemy,
With no one to help her,
The adversaries saw her
And mocked at her ^[a]downfall.

¹⁷ Still ^(A)our eyes failed us,
Watching vainly for our help;
In our watching we watched
For a nation that could not save us.
