62. He also gave His people over to the sword,And was furious with His inheritance.
63. The fire consumed their young men,And their maidens were not given in marriage.
64. Their priests fell by the sword,And their widows made no lamentation.
65. Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,Like a mighty man who shouts because of wine.
66. And He beat back His enemies;He put them to a perpetual reproach.
67. Moreover He rejected the tent of Joseph,And did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
68. But chose the tribe of Judah,Mount Zion which He loved.
