O God, the nations are come into thine inheritance; Thy holy temple have they defiled; They have laid Jerusalem in heaps.
The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be food unto the birds of the heavens, The flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; And there was none to bury them.
We are become a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and derision to them that are round about us.
How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou be angry for ever? Shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that know thee not, And upon the kingdoms that call not upon thy name.
For they have devoured Jacob, And laid waste his habitation.
