Lamentations 2:2

The Lord Is Angry

¹ In his anger Jehovah covered Zion with clouds of darkness. He changed its heavenly splendor into ruins. On the day of his anger he abandoned even his footstool. ² The Lord has swallowed up; He has not spared
All the habitations of Jacob.
In His wrath He has thrown down
The strongholds of the daughter of Judah;
He has brought them down to the ground;
He has profaned the kingdom and its princes.
³ In his burning anger he cut down every horn (strength) (power) of Israel. He turned his right hand back from before the enemy. He has put a fire in Jacob devouring and destroying all around.
