Lamentations 2:16

“His anger has torn me and hunted me down; He has gnashed at me with His teeth; My adversary sharpens his eyes to look at me.

They open wide their mouth at me, As a lion that tears and roars.

Amongst the godless jesters at a feast, They gnashed at me with their teeth.

Do not let them say in their heart, “Aha, our desire!” Do not let them say, “We have swallowed him up!”

‘I will pursue them with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence; and I will give them over to be a terror to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse and an object of horror and of hissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have banished them,

“Now was not Israel a laughingstock to you? Or was he caught among thieves? For each time you speak about him you shake your head in scorn.

All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.
