The Lord's Punishment of Jerusalem

The Lord in his anger has covered Zion with darkness.
    Its heavenly splendor he has turned into ruins.
    On the day of his anger he abandoned even his Temple.

The Lord destroyed without mercy every village in Judah
    And tore down the forts that defended the land.
    He brought disgrace on the kingdom and its rulers.

In his fury he shattered the strength of Israel;
    He refused to help us when the enemy came.
    He raged against us like fire, destroying everything.
