Untilthe LORDlooksdownAnd seesfrom heaven.
Lookdownfrom heavenand seefrom Your holyand glorioushabitation;Whereare Your zealand Your mightydeeds?The stirringsof Your heartand Your compassionare restrainedtowardme.
Oh,that You would rendthe heavens[and] comedown,That the mountainsmight quakeat Your presence--
See,O LORD,and look!With whomhave You dealtthus?Should womeneattheir offspring,The littleoneswhowere bornhealthy?Should priestand prophetbe slainIn the sanctuaryof the Lord?
My eyesbringpainto my soulBecauseof allthe daughtersof my city.
Remember,O LORD,whathas befallenus; Look,and seeour reproach!
