זָכְרָ֣ה יְרוּשָׁלִַ֗ם יְמֵ֤י עָנְיָהּ֙ וּמְרוּדֶ֔יהָ כֹּ֚ל מַחֲמֻדֶ֔יהָ אֲשֶׁ֥ר הָי֖וּ מִימֵ֣י קֶ֑דֶם בִּנְפֹ֤ל עַמָּהּ֙ בְּיַד־צָ֔ר וְאֵ֣ין עוֹזֵ֔ר רָא֥וּהָ צָרִ֛ים שָׂחֲק֖וּ עַל מִשְׁבַּתֶּֽהָ׃

King James Version (KJV)

Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths.

Modern English

Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and wandering all the precious things that were hers from days of old. When her people fell into the enemy's hand and there was none to help, the enemies saw her and laughed at her downfall.
