Lamentations 2:6-9

Lamentations 2:6-9

[6] And he hath violently taken away  his tabernacle,  as if it were of a garden:  he hath destroyed  his places of the assembly:  the LORD  hath caused the solemn feasts  and sabbaths  to be forgotten  in Zion,  and hath despised  in the indignation  of his anger  the king  and the priest.  [7] The Lord  hath cast off  his altar,  he hath abhorred  his sanctuary,  he hath given up  into the hand  of the enemy  the walls  of her palaces;  they have made  a noise  in the house  of the LORD,  as in the day  of a solemn feast.  [8] The LORD  hath purposed  to destroy  the wall  of the daughter  of Zion:  he hath stretched out  a line,  he hath not withdrawn  his hand  from destroying:  therefore he made the rampart  and the wall  to lament;  they languished  together.  [9] Her gates  are sunk  into the ground;  he hath destroyed  and broken  her bars:  her king  and her princes  are among the Gentiles:  the law  is no more; her prophets  also find  no vision  from the LORD.
