MSB(i)
2 Remember Your congregation, which You purchased long ago and redeemed as the tribe of Your inheritance—Mount Zion where You dwell.
3 Turn Your steps to the everlasting ruins, to everything in the sanctuary the enemy has destroyed.
4 Your foes have roared within Your meeting place; they have unfurled their banners as signs,
5 like men wielding axes in a thicket of trees
6 and smashing all the carvings with hatchets and picks.
7 They have burned Your sanctuary to the ground; they have defiled the dwelling place of Your Name.
8 They said in their hearts, “We will crush them completely.” They burned down every place where God met us in the land.
