What was of gold the captain of the guard took away as gold, and what was of silver, as silver.As for the two pillars, the one sea, the twelve bronze bulls that were under the sea, and the stands, which Solomon the king had made for the house of the Lord, the bronze of all these things was beyond weight.

O God, the nations have come into your inheritance; they have defiled your holy temple; they have laid Jerusalem in ruins.They have given the bodies of your servants to the birds of the heavens for food, the flesh of your faithful to the beasts of the earth.They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem, and there was no one to bury them.We have become a taunt to our neighbors, mocked and derided by those around us.How long, O Lord? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealousy burn like fire?Pour out your anger on the nations that do not know you, and on the kingdoms that do not call upon your name!For they have devoured Jacob and laid waste his habitation.
