Mitten im Elend, weit weg von ihrer Heimat, enkt Jerusalem an die Schätze, ie sie seit langer Zeit besaß. ls sie dem Feind in die Hände fiel,
ar niemand da, der ihr half.
Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths.
