They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem, and there is no one to bury the dead.
In context
1 The nations, O God, have invaded Your inheritance; they have defiled Your holy temple and reduced Jerusalem to rubble.
2 They have given the corpses of Your servants as food to the birds of the air, the flesh of Your saints to the beasts of the earth.
3 They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem, and there is no one to bury the dead.
4 We have become a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and derision to those around us.
5 How long, O LORD? Will You be angry forever? Will Your jealousy burn like fire?
