The Anger of Yahweh
Aleph
1 How the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion
With a cloud in His anger!
He has cast from heaven to earth
The beauty of Israel,
And has not remembered the footstool of His feet
In the day of His anger.
Beth
2 The Lord has swallowed up; He has not spared
All the habitations of Jacob.
In His wrath He has pulled down
The strongholds of the daughter of Judah;
He has brought them down to the ground;
He has profaned the kingdom and its princes.
(Lamentations 2:1-2 LSB)
