Lamentations 2:3-5
Christian Standard Bible
ג Gimel
3 He has cut off every horn(A) of Israel
in his burning anger
and withdrawn his right hand(B)
in the presence of the enemy.
He has blazed against Jacob like a flaming fire
that consumes everything.(C)
ד Daleth
4 He has strung his bow like an enemy;(D)
his right hand is positioned like an adversary.
He has killed everyone who was the delight to the eye,(E)
pouring out his wrath like fire
on the tent of Daughter Zion.
ה He
5 The Lord is like an enemy;
he has swallowed up Israel.
He swallowed up all its palaces
and destroyed its fortified cities.
He has multiplied mourning and lamentation
within Daughter Judah.(F)
