10 The enemy laid hands

on all her treasures;

she saw pagan nations

enter her sanctuary—

those you had forbidden

to enter your assembly.

10 The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her pleasant things:

For she hath seen that the heathen entered into her sanctuary,

Whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.

10 The enemy has plundered her completely,

taking every precious thing she owns.

She has seen foreigners violate her sacred Temple,

the place the Lord had forbidden them to enter.

10 The adversary has spread his hand

Over all her pleasant things;

For she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary,

Those whom You commanded

Not to enter Your assembly.

10 The enemy reached out and took

all her precious things.

She even saw foreigners

enter her Temple.

The Lord had commanded foreigners

never to enter the meeting place of his people.

10 The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her pleasant things:

For she hath seen that the nations are entered into her sanctuary,

Concerning whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thine assembly.

10 The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her precious things; for she hath seen the nations enter into her sanctuary, concerning whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.

10 The enemies laid their hands on all of the city’s treasures. 

Jerusalem has seen the nations enter the holy place. 

‘O Lord, they are the same people 

you have forbidden to enter your congregation.’ 

10 The adversary has seized

all her precious belongings.

She has even seen the nations

enter her sanctuary—

those You had forbidden

to enter Your assembly.

10 Enemies have stretched out their hands

over all her precious things;

she has even seen the nations

invade her sanctuary,

those whom you forbade

to enter your congregation.

10 The enemy has stretched out his hand

over all her treasures;

for she has seen the nations,

they entered her sanctuary,

those whom you commanded not to enter

in your assembly.

10 Jerusalem’s enemies took away

all of its treasures.

Its people saw strangers

enter its temple.

The Lord had commanded them

not to do that.

10 The adversary has stretched out his hand

Over all her precious things,

For she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary,

The ones whom You commanded

That they should not enter into Your congregation.
