Löydetty 2845 Tulokset: Thee
Have at thee, stronghold of ruin, the Lord says, a whole world’s ruin! My hand is raised to smite thee, and tear thee from thy rocky bed; a calcined heap thou shalt be, (Jeremiah 51, 25)
that never corner-stone, never foundation-stone shall yield; the Lord dooms thee to lie for ever desolate. (Jeremiah 51, 26)
Might I but confront thee with such another as thyself! What queen so unhappy as Jerusalem, what maid as Sion desolate? How shall I comfort thee? Sea-deep is thy ruin, and past all cure. (Lamentations 2, 13)
Never a true vision or a wise thy prophets have for thee, never shew thee where thy guilt rests, and urge thee to repentance; lies and lures are all the burden of their revealing. (Lamentations 2, 14)
Openly the passers-by deride thee, poor maid; clap hands, and hiss, and wag their heads at thee; So much, they cry, for the city that was once the nonpareil of beauty, pride of the whole earth! (Lamentations 2, 15)
Pale✻ envy mops and mows at thee; how they hiss and gnash their teeth! Now to prey on her carrion! What fortune, that we should have lived to see this day, so long looked for in vain! (Lamentations 2, 16)
Quit is the Lord of his oath taken in times past; all his purpose is fulfilled; for thee, ruin relentless, for thy bitter enemy, triumph and high achievement. (Lamentations 2, 17)
Know for certain, the Lord has not finally abandoned thee; (Lamentations 3, 31)
Save for one hope; to thee, Lord, I cried from the pit’s depth, (Lamentations 3, 55)
Unheard by thee their taunts, their whispered plottings? (Lamentations 3, 61)
Bethink thee, Lord, of our ill case; see where we lie humiliated, and seeing take pity! (Lamentations 5, 1)
Bring us back to thee, Lord, and let us find our home; bring back to us the days of our youth; (Lamentations 5, 21)
