Yesaya 64:11-12

64:11 Our holy temple, our pride and joy,¹

the place where our ancestors praised you,

has been burned with fire;

all our prized possessions have been destroyed.²

64:12 In light of all this,³ how can you still hold back, Lord?

How can you be silent and continue to humiliate us?

Mazmur 74:3-7

74:3 Hurry and look⁴ at the permanent ruins,

and all the damage the enemy has done to the temple!⁵

74:4 Your enemies roar⁶ in the middle of your sanctuary;⁷

they set up their battle flags.⁸

74:5 They invade like lumberjacks

swinging their axes in a thick forest.⁹

74:6 And now¹⁰ they are tearing down¹¹ all its engravings¹²

with axes¹³ and crowbars.¹⁴

74:7 They set your sanctuary on fire;

they desecrate your dwelling place by knocking it to the ground.¹⁵

Ratapan 1:10

י (Yod)

1:10 An enemy grabbed¹⁶

all her valuables.¹⁷

Indeed she watched in horror¹⁸ as Gentiles¹⁹

invaded her holy temple²⁰ –

those whom you²¹ had commanded:

“They must not enter²² your assembly place.”²³

Ratapan 4:1

The Prophet Speaks:

א (Alef)

4:1 ²⁴Alas!²⁵ Gold has lost its luster;²⁶

pure gold loses value.²⁷

Jewels²⁸ are scattered

on every street corner.²⁹

Matius 24:2

24:2 And he said to them,³⁰ “Do you see all these things? I tell you the truth,³¹ not one stone will be left on another.³² All will be torn down!”³³

Wahyu 11:2

11:2 But³⁴ do not measure the outer courtyard³⁵ of the temple; leave it out,³⁶ because it has been given to the Gentiles,³⁷ and they will trample on the holy city³⁸ for forty-two months.
