59. When God heard, he was full of wrath,and he utterly rejected Israel.
60. He forsook his dwelling at Shiloh,the tent where he dwelt among mankind,
61. and delivered his power to captivity,his glory to the hand of the foe.
62. He gave his people over to the swordand vented his wrath on his heritage.
63. Fire devoured their young men,and their young women had no marriage song.
64. Their priests fell by the sword,and their widows made no lamentation.
65. Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,like a strong man shouting because of wine.
66. And he put his adversaries to rout;he put them to everlasting shame.
67. He rejected the tent of Joseph;he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
68. but he chose the tribe of Judah,Mount Zion, which he loves.
69. He built his sanctuary like the high heavens,like the earth, which he has founded forever.
