1
God, the nations have come into your inheritance. They have defiled your holy temple. They have laid Jerusalem in heaps.
2
They have given the dead bodies of your servants to be food for the birds of the sky, The flesh of your saints to the animals of the earth.
3
Their blood they have shed like water around Jerusalem. There was no one to bury them.
4
We have become a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and derision to those who are around us.
5
How long, Yahweh? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealousy burn like fire?
6
Pour out your wrath on the nations that don`t know you; On the kingdoms that don`t call on your names;
7
For they have devoured Jacob, And destroyed his homeland.
