3Direct your steps to athe perpetual ruins;
the enemy has destroyed everything in the sanctuary!
4Your foes have broared in the midst of your meeting place;
cthey set up their down signs for esigns.
5They were like those who swing faxes
in a forest of trees.2
6And all its gcarved wood
they broke down with hatchets and hammers.
7They hset your sanctuary on fire;
they iprofaned jthe dwelling place of your name,
bringing it down to the ground.

NIVNew International Version (2011)
Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins,
all this destruction the enemy has brought on the sanctuary.
Your foes roared in the place where you met with us;
they set up their standards as signs.
They behaved like men wielding axes
to cut through a thicket of trees.
They smashed all the carved paneling
with their axes and hatchets.
They burned your sanctuary to the ground;
they defiled the dwelling place of your Name.

CSBChristian Standard Bible
Make your way to the perpetual ruins,
to all that the enemy has destroyed in the sanctuary.
Your adversaries roared in the meeting place
where you met with us.
They set up their emblems as signs.
It was like men in a thicket of trees,
wielding axes,
then smashing all the carvings
with hatchets and picks.
They set your sanctuary on fire;
they utterly desecrated
the dwelling place of your name.

NLTNew Living Translation
Walk through the awful ruins of the city;
see how the enemy has destroyed your sanctuary.
There your enemies shouted their victorious battle cries;
there they set up their battle standards.
They swung their axes
like woodcutters in a forest.
With axes and picks,
they smashed the carved paneling.
They burned your sanctuary to the ground.
They defiled the place that bears your name.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
Lift your steps to the perpetual ruins,
to all that the enemy has ruined in the sanctuary.
Your enemies have roared in the midst of your meeting place;
they have set up their signs for signs.
They are known to be like those who wield
axes in a thicket of trees.
And now its carved works altogether
they have smashed with axe and hammer.
They have set fire to your sanctuary.
They have defiled to the ground,
the dwelling place for your name.

KJV 1900King James Version
Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations;
Even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations;
They set up their ensigns for signs.
A man was famous according as he had lifted up
Axes upon the thick trees.
But now they break down the carved work thereof
At once with axes and hammers.
They have cast fire into thy sanctuary,
They have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.
