Lamentations 2:6-8

English Standard Version

⁶ He has laid waste his booth like a garden,
    laid in ruins ^(A)his meeting place;
^(B)the Lord has made Zion forget
    festival and ^(C)Sabbath,
and in his fierce indignation has spurned king and priest.

^7 (D)The Lord has scorned his altar,
    ^(E)disowned his sanctuary;
^(F)he has delivered into the hand of the enemy
    the walls of her palaces;
^(G)they raised a clamor in the house of the Lord
    as on the day of festival.

^8 (H)The Lord determined to lay in ruins
    ^(I)the wall of the daughter of Zion;
^(J)he stretched out the measuring line;
    he did not restrain his hand from destroying;
^(K)he caused rampart and wall to lament;
    ^(L)they languished together.
