² Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed, this Mount Zion, in which thou hast dwelt.

³ Lift up thy feet unto the eternal desolations, unto every enemy who has done wickedly in the sanctuary.

⁴ Thine enemies have roared in the midst of thy assemblies; they set up their own banners for signs.
