17. Therefore is our heart sorrowful, therefore are our eyes become dim,
18. For mount Sion, because it is destroyed, foxes have walked upon it.
19. But thou, O Lord, shalt remain for ever, thy throne from generation to generation.
20. Why wilt thou forget us for ever? why wilt thou forsake us for a long time?
21. Convert us, O Lord, to thee, and we shall be converted: renew our days, as from the beginning.
22. But thou hast utterly rejected us, thou art exceedingly angry against us.
