15
The joy of our heart has ceased; Our dance has turned into mourning.
16
The crown has fallen from our head. Woe to us, for we have sinned!
17
Because of this our heart is faint; Because of these things our eyes grow dim;
18
Because of Mount Zion which is desolate, With foxes walking about on it.
19
You, O Lord, remain forever; Your throne from generation to generation.
20
Why do You forget us forever, And forsake us for so long a time?
21
Turn us back to You, O Lord, and we will be restored; Renew our days as of old,
22
Unless You have utterly rejected us, And are very angry with us!
