ה (He)
2:5 The Lord,
destroyed
He destroyed
he ruined her
He made everyone in Daughter Judah
mourn and lament.
ח (Khet)
2:8 The Lord was determined to tear down
Daughter Zion’s wall.
He prepared to knock it down;
he did not withdraw his hand from destroying.
He made the ramparts and fortified walls lament;
together they mourned their ruin.
פ (Pe)
2:16 All your enemies
gloated over you.
They sneered and gnashed their teeth;
they said, “We have destroyed
Ha! We have waited a long time for this day.
We have lived to see it!”
ב (Bet)
2:2 The Lord
all the homes of Jacob’s descendants.
In his anger he tore down
the fortified cities
He knocked to the ground and humiliated
the kingdom and its rulers.
