The Lord was minded to bring down in ruins<br>
the walls of the daughter of Zion;<br>
he took their measure with his line<br>
and did not scruple to demolish her;<br>
he made rampart and wall lament, and <br>
both together lay dejected.<br>
My eyes are blinded with tears,<br>
my bowels writhe in anguish.<br>
In my bitterness my bile is spilt on the earth. <br>
The daughters of my people and the sucking child<br>
faint away in the streets of the town.<br>
Jerusalem, turn again to the Lord your God.

Original text and translations

Heth: cogitavit Dominus dissipare murum
filiae Sion, tetendit funiculum suum,
et non avertit manum suam a perditione;
luxitque ante murale et murus pariter dissipatus est.
Caph: defecerunt prae lacrimis oculi mei,
conturbata sunt viscera mei, effusum est in terra
jecur meum super contritione filiae populi mei
cum deficerunt parvulus et lactens in plateis oppidi.
Jerusalem, convertere ad Dominum Deum tuum.

The Lord was minded to bring down in ruins
the walls of the daughter of Zion;
he took their measure with his line
and did not scruple to demolish her;
he made rampart and wall lament, and
both together lay dejected.
My eyes are blinded with tears,
my bowels writhe in anguish.
In my bitterness my bile is spilt on the earth.
The daughters of my people and the sucking child
faint away in the streets of the town.
Jerusalem, turn again to the Lord your God.
