Lamentations 2:7-9
New Century Version
7 The Lord has rejected his altar
and abandoned his Temple.
He has handed over to the enemy
the walls of Jerusalem’s palaces.
Their uproar in the Lord’s Temple
was like that of a feast day.
8 The Lord planned to destroy
the wall around Jerusalem.
He measured the wall
and did not stop himself from destroying it.
He made the walls and defenses sad;
together they have fallen.
9 Jerusalem’s gates have fallen to the ground;
he destroyed and smashed the bars of the gates.
Her king and her princes are among the nations.
The teaching of the Lord has stopped,
and the prophets do not have
visions from the Lord.
Lamentations 2:7-9

and abandoned his sanctuary.(A)
He has given the walls of her palaces(B)
into the hands of the enemy;
they have raised a shout in the house of the Lord
as on the day of an appointed festival.(C)
