Lamentations 2:16-17

16 ^aAll your enemies
rail against you;
they hiss, they gnash their teeth,
they cry: “We ^bhave swallowed her!
Ah, this is the day we longed for;
now we have it; ^cwe see it!”
17 The Lord has done what he purposed;
he has carried out ^dhis word,
which he commanded ^elong ago;
^fhe has thrown down ^gwithout pity;
^hhe has made the enemy rejoice over you
and exalted the ⁱmight of your foes.
