89:39 You have repudiated 1 your covenant with your servant; 2
you have thrown his crown to the ground. 3
89:40 You have broken down all his 4 walls;
you have made his strongholds a heap of ruins.
23:9 The Lord who commands armies planned it –
to dishonor the pride that comes from all her beauty, 5
to humiliate all the dignitaries of the earth.
43:28 So I defiled your holy princes,
and handed Jacob over to destruction,
and subjected 6 Israel to humiliating abuse.”
47:6 I was angry at my people;
I defiled my special possession
and handed them over to you.
You showed them no mercy; 7
you even placed a very heavy burden on old people. 8
