Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in it.But the Lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep silence before him.”

Psalms 74:3-11
Direct your steps to the perpetual ruins; the enemy has destroyed everything in the sanctuary!Your foes have roared in the midst of your meeting place; they set up their own signs for signs.They were like those who swing axes in a forest of trees.And all its carved wood they broke down with hatchets and hammers.They set your sanctuary on fire; they profaned the dwelling place of your name, bringing it down to the ground.They said to themselves,“ We will utterly subdue them”; they burned all the meeting places of God in the land.We do not see our signs; there is no longer any prophet, and there is none among us who knows how long.How long, O God, is the foe to scoff? Is the enemy to revile your name forever?Why do you hold back your hand, your right hand? Take it from the fold of your garment and destroy them!
