1. How the gold has become tarnished,the fine gold become dull!The stones of the temple lie scatteredat the corner of every street.
2. Zion’s precious people —once worth their weight in pure gold —how they are regarded as clay jars,the work of a potter’s hands!
3. Even jackals offer their breaststo nurse their young,but my dear people have become cruellike ostriches in the wilderness.
