Are your days like the days of a mortal, or your years like the years of a mortal,

I say, “O my God, please do not take me away in the middle of my life! You endure through all generations.

you are guilty because of the blood you shed and defiled by the idols you made. You have hastened the day of your doom; the end of your years has come. Therefore I will make you an object of scorn to the nations, an object to be mocked by all lands.
