Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and of her miseries
    all her pleasant things that were from the days of old;
when her people fell into the hand of the adversary,
    and no one helped her.
The adversaries saw her.
    They mocked at her desolations.

Jerusalem has grievously sinned.
    Therefore she has become unclean.
All who honored her despise her,
    because they have seen her nakedness.
    Yes, she sighs, and turns backward.

Her filthiness was in her skirts.
    She didn’t remember her latter end.
Therefore she has come down astoundingly.
    She has no comforter.
“See, Yahweh, my affliction;
    for the enemy has magnified himself.”
