'Desolate' in the Bible
The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn assembly; All her gates are desolate, her priests do sigh: Her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness.
From on high hath he sent fire into my bones, and it prevaileth against them; He hath spread a net for my feet, he hath turned me back: He hath made me desolate and faint all the day.
For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water; Because the comforter that should refresh my soul is far from me: My children are desolate, because the enemy hath prevailed.
He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he hath made me desolate.
They that did feed delicately are desolate in the streets: They that were brought up in scarlet embrace dunghills.
For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate: The foxes walk upon it.
