²⁷ How are the mighty fallen, And the weapons of war perished!

²⁵ How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan is slain upon thy high places.

¹⁰ And I took my staff Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the peoples.

⁷ So I fed the flock of slaughter, verily the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.

¹⁶ The crown is fallen from our head: Woe unto us! for we have sinned.

¹ How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger! He hath cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, And hath not remembered his footstool in the day of his anger.

² For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

⁸ And what great nation is there, that hath statutes and ordinances so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
