(Vav) All of Daughter Zion's splendor has departed. Her leaders became like deer; they found no pasture, so they were too exhausted to escape from the hunter.

(Vav) He destroyed his temple as if it were a vineyard; he destroyed his appointed meeting place. The Lord has made those in Zion forget both the festivals and the Sabbaths. In his fierce anger he has spurned both king and priest.

(Vav) He ground my teeth in gravel; he trampled me in the dust.

(Vav) The punishment of my people exceeded that of of Sodom, which was overthrown in a moment with no one to help her.
