Lamentations 2:1-3

New American Standard Bible 1995

2 How the Lord has ^(A)covered the daughter of Zion
With a cloud in His anger!
He has ^(B)cast from heaven to earth
The ^(C)glory of Israel,
And has not remembered His ^(D)footstool
In the day of His anger.
² The Lord has ^(E)swallowed up; He has not spared
All the habitations of Jacob.
In His wrath He has ^(F)thrown down
The strongholds of the daughter of Judah;
He has ^(G)brought them down to the ground;
He has ^(H)profaned the kingdom and its princes.
³ In fierce anger He has cut off
^[a]All the ^(I)strength of Israel;
He has ^(J)drawn back His right hand
From before the enemy.
And He has ^(K)burned in Jacob like a flaming fire
Consuming round about.
