    7In the days of her affliction and wandering, Jerusalem remembers all the treasures that were hers in days of old. When her people fell into the hand of the enemy, there was no one to help her. Her enemies saw her and mocked her downfall.

    10The enemy has laid hands on all her treasures; she saw nations enter her sanctuary—those you had forbidden to enter your assembly.
