'Down' in the Bible

Her (ceremonial) uncleanness was on her skirts;She did not [seriously] consider her future.Therefore she has come down [from throne to slavery] in an astonishing manner;She has no comforter.“O Lord” [cries Jerusalem], “look at my affliction,For the enemy has magnified himself [in triumph]!”

How the Lord has covered the Daughter of Zion (Jerusalem)With a cloud in His anger!He has cast down from heaven to the earthThe glory and splendor of IsraelAnd has not remembered His footstoolIn the day of His anger.

The Lord has swallowed up; He has not sparedAll the country places of Jacob.In His wrath He has thrown downThe strongholds of the Daughter of Judah (Jerusalem).He has brought them down to the ground [in disgrace];He has debased the kingdom and its princes.

And He has violently broken down His temple like a [fragile] garden hedge;He has destroyed His appointed meeting place.The Lord has caused the appointed feast and SabbathTo be forgotten in ZionAnd has despised and rejected the king and the priestIn the indignation of His anger.

Their hearts cried out to the Lord.“O wall of the Daughter of Zion,Let your tears run down like a river day and night;Give yourself no relief,Let your eyes have no rest.

He walled me in so that I cannot get out;He has weighted down my chain.

My soul continually remembers themAnd is bowed down within me.

Until the Lord looks downAnd sees from heaven.

Without cause my enemiesHunted me down like a bird;

The waters ran down on my head;I said, “I am cut off (destroyed)!”

Look at their sitting and their rising [their actions and secret counsels];I am their mocking song [the subject of their ridicule].

O Lord, remember what has come upon us;Look, and see our reproach (national disgrace)!
