Lamentations 2:7-9

New King James Version

⁷ The Lord has spurned His altar,
He has ^(A)abandoned His sanctuary;
He has ^[a]given up the walls of her palaces
Into the hand of the enemy.
^(B)They have made a noise in the house of the Lord
As on the day of a set feast.

⁸ The Lord has ^[b]purposed to destroy
The ^(C)wall of the daughter of Zion.
^(D)He has stretched out a line;
He has not withdrawn His hand from destroying;
Therefore He has caused the rampart and wall to lament;
They languished together.

⁹ Her gates have sunk into the ground;
He has destroyed and ^(E)broken her bars.
^(F)Her king and her princes are among the ^[c]nations;
^(G)The Law is no more,
And her ^(H)prophets find no ^[d]vision from the Lord.
