They replied, “The remnant there in the province who escaped captivity are in great trouble and shame; the wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates have been destroyed by fire.”
He has broken down his booth like a garden; he has destroyed his tabernacle; the Lord has abolished in Zion festival and Sabbath and in his fierce indignation has spurned king and priest.
They will take your riches and plunder your merchandise; they shall break down your walls and destroy your fine houses. Your stones and timber and soil they shall cast into the water.
