From on high has he sent fire into my bones, and it prevails against them; He has spread a net for my feet, he has turned me back: He has made me desolate and faint all the day.
For these things I weep; my eye, my eye runs down with water; Because the comforter who should refresh my soul is far from me: My children are desolate, because the enemy has prevailed.
He has turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he has made me desolate.
Those who did feed delicately are desolate in the streets: Those who were brought up in scarlet embrace dunghills.
For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate: The foxes walk on it.
