And He has caused an enemy to brejoice over you;
He has exalted the1 horn of your adversaries.

19 “Arise, acry out in the night,
At the beginning of the watches;
bPour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord.
Lift your hands toward Him
For the life of your young children,
Who faint from hunger cat the head of every street.”
