Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that were from the days of old; when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and no one helped her. The adversaries saw her. They mocked at her desolations.

ગુજરાતીયર્મિયાનો વિલાપ ૧:૭
યરુશાલેમ નગર પોતાના દુ:ખ તથા વિપત્તિના દિવસોમાં અગાઉના દિવસોમાંની પોતાની સર્વ જાહોજલાલીનું સ્મરણ કરે છે. જ્યારે તેના લોકો શત્રુના હાથમાં પડ્યા અને તેને સહાય કરનાર કોઈ નહોતું, ત્યારે શત્રુઓએ તેને જોયું અને તેની પાયમાલી જોઈને તેની મશ્કરી કરી.
हिन्दीविलापगीत १:७
यरूशलेम ने, इन दुःख भरे और संकट के दिनों में, जब उसके लोग द्रोहियों के हाथ में पड़े और उसका कोई सहायक न रहा, अपनी सब मनभावनी वस्तुओं को जो प्राचीनकाल से उसकी थीं, स्मरण किया है। उसके द्रोहियों ने उसको उजड़ा देखकर उपहास में उड़ाया है।

In context

5Her adversaries have become the head. Her enemies prosper; for the LORD has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions. Her young children have gone into captivity before the adversary.

6All majesty has departed from the daughter of Zion. Her princes have become like deer that find no pasture. They have gone without strength before the pursuer.

7Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that were from the days of old; when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and no one helped her. The adversaries saw her. They mocked at her desolations.

8Jerusalem has grievously sinned. Therefore she has become unclean. All who honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness. Yes, she sighs and turns backward.

9Her filthiness was in her skirts. She didn’t remember her latter end. Therefore she has come down astoundingly. She has no comforter. “See, LORD, my affliction; for the enemy has magnified himself.”
