4 And they that hate thee have made their boasts, in the midst of thy solemnity. They have set up their ensigns for signs, 5 and they knew not both in the going out and on the highest top. As with axes in a wood of trees, 6 they have cut down at once the gates thereof, with axe and hatchet they have brought it down. 7 They have set fire to thy sanctuary: they have defiled the dwelling place of thy name on the earth. 8 They said in their heart, the whole kindred of them together: Let us abolish all the festival days of God from the land.
