ג Gimel

He has cut off every horn(A) of Israel
in His burning anger
and withdrawn His right hand(B)
in the presence of the enemy.
He has blazed against Jacob like a flaming fire
that consumes everything.(C)

ד Dalet

He has bent His bow like an enemy;(D)
His right hand is positioned like an adversary.
He has killed everyone who was loved,[a]
pouring out His wrath like fire
on the tent of Daughter Zion.
