1. O God, the nations have come into your inheritance;they have defiled your holy temple;they have laid Jerusalem in ruins.
2. They have given the bodies of your servantsto the birds of the heavens for food,the flesh of your faithful to the beasts of the earth.
3. They have poured out their blood like waterall around Jerusalem,and there was no one to bury them.
4. We have become a taunt to our neighbors, mocked and derided by those around us.
