² For You have made ^(A)a city a ruin,
A fortified city a ruin,
A palace of foreigners to be a city no more;
It will never be rebuilt.

^2 (A)Therefore behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord,
“That I will cause to be heard an alarm of war
In ^(B)Rabbah of the Ammonites;
It shall be a desolate mound,
And her ^[a]villages shall be burned with fire.
Then Israel shall take possession of his inheritance,” says the Lord.
