You have renounced the covenant of Your servant; You have profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
The crown has fallen from our head. Woe to us, for we have sinned!
They have set fire to Your sanctuary; They have defiled the dwelling place of Your name to the ground.
Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will know after this.”
Therefore I will profane the princes of the sanctuary; I will give Jacob to the curse, And Israel to reproaches.
The fortress of the high fort of your walls He will bring down, lay low, And bring to the ground, down to the dust.
For the enemy has persecuted my soul; He has crushed my life to the ground; He has made me dwell in darkness, Like those who have long been dead.
I said in my haste, “All men are liars.”
You have made his glory cease, And cast his throne down to the ground.
And I said, “This is my anguish; But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
You make us turn back from the enemy, And those who hate us have taken spoil for themselves.
You have shown Your people hard things; You have made us drink the wine of confusion.
