To whom have You done this?
aShould the women eat their offspring,
The children1 they have cuddled?
Should the priest and prophet be slain
In the sanctuary of the Lord?
On the ground in the streets;
My virgins and my young men
Have fallen by the bsword;
You have slain them in the day of Your anger,
You have slaughtered and not pitied.
aThe terrors that surround me.
In the day of the Lord’s anger
There was no refugee or survivor.
bThose whom I have borne and brought up
My enemies have cdestroyed.”

Lamentations 2:22
My terrors - As my people were wont to be called together from all parts in a solemn day, so now my terrible enemies, or terrible things are by thee called together.
