7 »They also shut the doors of the temple’s entrance hall. They extinguished the lamps, and did not burn incense or sacrifice burnt offerings in the holy place to the God of Israel.
8 »Jehovah was angry with Judah and Jerusalem. He made them something that shocks and terrifies people and that people ridicule, as you can see with your own eyes.
9 »Our fathers were killed in battle. Our sons, daughters, and wives are prisoners because of this.
10 »Now I intend to make a pledge to Jehovah the God of Israel so that he may turn his burning anger away from us.
