4Roared have thine adversaries, In the midst of Thy meeting-places, They have set their ensigns as ensigns.
5He is known as one bringing in on high Against a thicket of wood — axes.
6And now, its carvings together With axe and hatchet they break down,
7They have sent into fire Thy sanctuary, to the earth they polluted the tabernacle of Thy name,
8They said in their hearts, 'Let us oppress them together,' They did burn all the meeting-places of God in the land.
