Psalms 42:2-4
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God; When shall I come and appear before God?My tears have been my food day and night, While they say to me all day long,“ Where is your God?”I remember these things and pour out my soul within me. For I used to go over with the multitude and walk them to the house of God, With a voice of joy and thanksgiving, a multitude celebrating a festival.

Lamentations 2:6-7
And He has treated His tabernacle violently, like a despised garden; He has destroyed His appointed meeting place. The Lord has caused The appointed feast and Sabbath in Zion to be forgotten, And He has despised king and priest In the indignation of His anger.The Lord has rejected His altar, He has repudiated His sanctuary; He has handed over The walls of her palaces to the enemy. They have made a noise in the house of the Lord As on the day of an appointed feast.

For there our captors demanded of us songs, And our tormentors, jubilation, saying,“ Sing for us one of the songs of Zion!”How can we sing the Lord’s song In a foreign land?If I forget you, Jerusalem, May my right hand forget its skill.May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth If I do not remember you, If I do not exalt Jerusalem Above my chief joy.
