Lamentations 2:6-8
New King James Version
6 He has done violence (A)to His [a]tabernacle,
(B)As if it were a garden;
He has destroyed His place of assembly;
The Lord has caused
The appointed feasts and Sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion.
In His burning indignation He has (C)spurned the king and the priest.
7 The Lord has spurned His altar,
He has (D)abandoned His sanctuary;
He has [b]given up the walls of her palaces
Into the hand of the enemy.
(E)They have made a noise in the house of the Lord
As on the day of a set feast.
8 The Lord has [c]purposed to destroy
The (F)wall of the daughter of Zion.
(G)He has stretched out a line;
He has not withdrawn His hand from destroying;
Therefore He has caused the rampart and wall to lament;
They languished together.
