God, the nations have invaded Your inheritance; They have defiled Your holy temple; They have laid Jerusalem in ruins.They have given the dead bodies of Your servants to the birds of the sky as food, The flesh of Your godly ones to the animals of the earth.They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem; And there was no one to bury them.We have become a disgrace before our neighbors, An object of derision and ridicule to those around us.How long, Lord? Will You be angry forever? Will Your jealousy burn like fire?Pour out Your wrath upon the nations which do not know You, And upon the kingdoms which do not call upon Your name.For they have devoured Jacob And laid waste his settlement.
