=== Most Important Election Day (07:11) ===

[00:00:00]  And to me, it's been a lot of fun being with you.
[00:00:02]  You're an amazing guy.
[00:00:03]  You've done an incredible job and a great inspiration to people.
[00:00:07]  A great inspiration.
[00:00:08]  And I hope you keep going and just continue to do well.
[00:00:12]  And we're going to have a big election coming up.
[00:00:15]  And I think November 5th will be the most important day in the history of our country.
[00:00:20]  I think that election will be the most important election.
[00:00:23]  And I think it'll end up being maybe the most important day in the history of our country, because If we don't win, I just feel so sorry for everybody.
[00:00:33]  No, I think we're at a fork in the road of destiny of civilization.
[00:00:38]  And I think we need to take the right path.
[00:00:42]  And I think you're the right path.
[00:00:45]  So I think that's what it comes down to.
[00:00:46]  Thank you very much, Elon.
[00:00:47]  It's a great honor.
[00:00:49]  And we'll do it again sometime.
[00:00:51]  And it's been really fun.
[00:00:53]  And I hope you got a lot of viewers.
[00:00:54]  I hear you got a lot.
[00:00:56]  But I hope you got a lot.
[00:00:58]  I know you got a lot of them.
[00:01:00]  So I appreciate it.
[00:01:01]  I'll see you soon.
[00:01:04]  All right.
[00:01:04]  Sounds good.
[00:01:04]  Thank you.
[00:01:05]  Thank you, Elon.
[00:01:06]  Thank you very much.
[00:01:07]  Thank you. Bye.
[00:01:09]  Wow, everybody. That was crazy. Unbelievable.
[00:01:18]  Geez Louise, man. That was some next level stuff. Wow.
[00:01:26]  That was probably the best interview I've ever seen in my life.
[00:01:32]  And it ended right now as we are going into Tisha B'Av.
[00:01:38]  It ended.
[00:01:40]  And now we are in the fast of Tisha B'Av.
[00:01:44]  As of now.
[00:01:48]  You know, I performed the rites and the rituals and was thinking, how do I conclude such an event like this?
[00:01:54]  Literally going into Tisha B'Av.
[00:01:56]  The sun just set.
[00:01:58]  It is now the fast set at 742.
[00:02:00]  Right now it's 748.
[00:02:01]  right now it's 748. So I was like, what could we possibly do to conclude such an
[00:02:11]  amazing legendary interview such as this? The only thing I can think of is to read
[00:02:18]  Eicha, the book of Lamentations.
[00:02:22]  Because this is where we are right now.
[00:02:26]  This is what humanity's struggle is.
[00:02:32]  This is the redemption moment, folks.
[00:02:36]  This is our redemption moment.
[00:02:39]  This is where we put it together.
[00:02:41]  This is where we save the day.
[00:02:44]  This is where we all show up, have those difficult conversations with people who don't want to hear your political opinions.
[00:02:53]  Let them know what you heard today.
[00:02:57]  And I say to President Trump, at real Donald Trump, I just want to say at, I want to call
[00:03:03]  them by their names now.
[00:03:05]  I want to say to at real Donald Trump and to at Elon Musk that thank you.
[00:03:13]  Thank you for that.
[00:03:14]  Thank you for that eye-opening, unbelievable interview.
[00:03:19]  And truly, truly one of a kind.
[00:03:24]  This could be the entire Campaign for the rest of the campaign.
[00:03:31]  Elon Musk and Donald Trump once a day, once a week.
[00:03:37]  But the truth is it should be every day because we should all show up every single day.
[00:03:43]  Humanity's at risk, folks.
[00:03:46]  We are at risk.
[00:03:47]  The entire collective of humanity is at risk.
[00:03:53]  That's why we're going to read Eicha.
[00:03:56]  The Book of Lamentations.
[00:03:59]  And we're gonna all retire after this to our domiciles.
[00:04:06]  We're gonna pray.
[00:04:08]  Absolutely pray for the peace of the world.
[00:04:13]  For the peace of Jerusalem.
[00:04:18]  For the Holy Temple to come speedily in our days.
[00:04:24]  The Holy Temple.
[00:04:26]  Wow.
[00:04:27]  What a blessing.
[00:04:29]  The Holy Temple.
[00:04:32]  And this could be our reality if we choose.
[00:04:34]  Life is about choices.
[00:04:36]  What do you do with the choice you have now?
[00:04:38]  Are you going to choose to rise?
[00:04:40]  Kumbaya!
[00:04:41]  The word Kumbaya.
[00:04:43]  It means rise inside of God.
[00:04:46]  Kumbaya!
[00:04:47]  Rise in God!
[00:04:48]  Are you gonna rise in God?
[00:04:51]  The God Spirit?
[00:04:53]  Defend our homeland?
[00:04:55]  Defend our way of life?
[00:04:56]  to friend freedom and justice and liberty for all?
[00:05:00]  That's what it's about.
[00:05:09]  Now is the time.
[00:05:10]  And that's why I say at real Donald Trump and at real Elon Musk.
[00:05:17]  That'd be funny.
[00:05:19]  It's so funny all the people that became at reals.
[00:05:24]  There was at real so-and-so, at real so-and-so, at real so-and-so.
[00:05:29]  Yo, I'm like Trump.
[00:05:30]  I'm at real so-and-so.
[00:05:32]  But for real, Trump is at real Donald Trump.
[00:05:36]  He is the at real so-and-so.
[00:05:38]  Donald Trump is the at real so-and-so.
[00:05:41]  Hands down.
[00:05:45]  But as we continue, joking aside, we're on the precipice of a global conflict between Iran and the West, with Israel on the front lines, radical Islamic jihad spread across Europe, Led by the Muslim Brotherhood.
[00:06:06]  Backed by Iran.
[00:06:07]  At the nape of Europe.
[00:06:10]  It's all Iran, folks!
[00:06:13]  Iran is so influential throughout Europe.
[00:06:17]  And at the fulcrum sits Israel.
[00:06:19]  Blocking the global caliphate.
[00:06:23]  And we are going to have a redemption, folks.
[00:06:25]  We are going to have a redemption.
[00:06:28]  The good God above is going to will it so.
[00:06:32]  And we are going to read Lamentations.
[00:06:34]  And us too are going to learn.
[00:06:37]  I said in my first comments about the interview that I was learning from these two men because I felt it.
[00:06:53]  I felt the power of learning.
[00:06:55]  It's unbelievable.

=== Jeremiah's Heartbreaking Task (03:44) ===

[00:06:58]  The experience and the depth of being of these two individuals.
[00:07:04]  Oh, my God.
[00:07:05]  I mean, wow.
[00:07:08]  These two men know a lot of things.
[00:07:12]  As is customary in Judaism, we read the Book of Lamentations twice.
[00:07:18]  And so I am going to read it, but I am going to read it in English for all of you so that we can learn it together and understand the Word of God.
[00:07:30]  Let's read this precursor first.
[00:07:32]  Jeremiah was a young prophet to whom God assigned a heartbreaking task.
[00:07:43]  He was to tell Israel over and over again that destruction and exile were impending.
[00:07:50]  Warnings of destruction Warnings of destruction and pleas for repentance.
[00:07:58]  These were Jeremiah's message, but to no avail.
[00:08:03]  Prophets of doom are not popular, and no one was more unpopular than Jeremiah.
[00:08:10]  His written prophecies were burned, he was accused as a false prophet and a charlatan, and finally he was thrown into a dungeon.
[00:08:23]  Someone else might have become consumed with the hatred for the people that spurned and humiliated him.
[00:08:32]  But not Jeremiah.
[00:08:35]  Wow.
[00:08:38]  At the orders of King Nebuchadnezzar, the conquering Babylonian general, Nebuchadnezzar, released Jeremiah and treated him graciously.
[00:08:49]  But he was not comforted by his vindication or his freedom.
[00:08:54]  Jeremiah sought his suffering brothers.
[00:08:57]  He found their bloody footprints and weepingly knelt to kiss the blood-stained ground.
[00:09:03]  When he caught up with their famished, brutalized ranks, he embraced and kissed them.
[00:09:13]  He tried to put his own head into their heavy, abrasive chains, but Nebuchadnezzar forced
[00:09:20]  him away.
[00:09:21]  Nebuchadnezzar forced him away.
[00:09:28]  The general of Nebuchadnezzar.
[00:09:31]  The conquering Babylonian general, Nebuzaradan, he's the one who released Yirmiyahu, Jeremiah.
[00:09:40]  And he tried to put his head in the chains of the Jews, and Nebuzaradan forced him away that he can't do that.
[00:09:50]  It was like he was exempt.
[00:09:52]  God couldn't spare shackling Jeremiah.
[00:09:58]  To his brethren he cried out, if only you had wept once in remorse over your sins, when you were still in Zion, you would not have been exiled.
[00:10:14]  Crazy.
[00:10:15]  If only you would have wept once over your sins.
[00:10:22]  If only you would have wept once in remorse over your sins.
[00:10:29]  If you would have wept once when you were still in Zion, you would have not been exiled.

=== Tisha B'Av: Day of Jewish Tragedy (02:52) ===

[00:10:40]  Alas, they had not wept, but he did before, during, and after his personal and national ordeals.
[00:10:56]  The Book of Lamentations is Jeremiah's personal elegy, his lamenting of his people, his lament for his people, and it alludes to Jewish woe throughout history.
[00:11:13]  The book is read on Tisha B'Av, which we have just dawned at this very moment.
[00:11:20]  The ninth day of the Hebrew month of Av.
[00:11:24]  The quintessential day of Jewish tragedy.
[00:11:28]  It was the day when the Jews in the wilderness believed in the libel of the spies.
[00:11:34]  And that generation lost its chance to enter the land of Israel.
[00:11:39]  Among other national calamities, both temples were destroyed on Tisha B'Av.
[00:11:47]  Nor was the catalog of woe limited to ancient times.
[00:11:51]  During the times of the Spanish Inquisition, Tish'a b'Av, 1492, was the deadline for the Jews to leave the country or face death.
[00:12:02]  And in 1914, Tish'a b'Av was the day when World War I was declared, thus ushering in the political and economic collapse that resulted in the Bolshevik Revolution and the Holocaust.
[00:12:17]  The sages teach that the Messiah will be born on Tisha B'Av, meaning that a proper understanding of and reflection upon the cause of destruction reveal that contained within it are the seeds of redemption.
[00:12:38]  We do not forget our tragedies.
[00:12:43]  Rather, we retain our optimism.
[00:12:47]  Because, quote, had I not fallen, I could not have arisen.
[00:12:57]  Had I not sat in the darkness, God would not have been a light for me.
[00:13:04]  End quote.
[00:13:05]  Midrash Tehillim, Chapter 22.
[00:13:07]  The book of Lamentations, my friends, was written by Jeremiah the prophet.

=== Alas, She Sits Alone (15:26) ===

[00:13:22]  And now we will begin.
[00:13:23]  Alas, she sits in solitude.
[00:13:35]  The city that was great with people has become like a widow.
[00:13:41]  The greatest among nations, the princess among provinces, has become a tributary.
[00:13:53]  She weeps bitterly in the night, and her tear is on her cheek.
[00:14:00]  She has no comforter from all of her paramours.
[00:14:06]  All of her friends have betrayed her.
[00:14:09]  They have become her enemies.
[00:14:14]  Judah has gone into exile because of suffering and great servitude.
[00:14:22]  She dwelled among the nations, but found no rest.
[00:14:27]  All her pursuers overtook her in dire straits.
[00:14:33]  The roads of Zion are mourning for lack of festival pilgrims.
[00:14:40]  All her gates are desolate.
[00:14:44]  Her priests sigh.
[00:14:46]  Her maidens are afflicted and she herself is embittered.
[00:14:54]  Her adversaries have become her master.
[00:14:58]  Her enemies are at ease.
[00:15:02]  For Hashem has afflicted her for her abundant transgressions.
[00:15:09]  Her young children have gone into captivity before the enemy.
[00:15:16]  Gone from the daughter of Zion is all her splendor.
[00:15:21]  Her leaders were like hearts that found no pastor.
[00:15:25]  They walked on without strength before the pursuer.
[00:15:34]  Her leaders were like hearts that found no pastor.
[00:15:41]  They walk on without strength before the pursuer.
[00:15:47]  Hm.
[00:15:52]  Hashem Yirachem.
[00:15:56]  Jerusalem recalled the days of her suffering and sorrow, all the treasures that were hers in the days of old, with the fall of her people into the enemy's hand.
[00:16:11]  And none to help her.
[00:16:14]  Her enemies saw her and gloated at her downfall.
[00:16:21]  Jerusalem sinned greatly.
[00:16:23]  She has therefore become a wanderer.
[00:16:27]  All who once respected her disparage her, for they have seen her disgrace.
[00:16:35]  She herself sighs and turns away.
[00:16:40]  Her impurity is on her hems.
[00:16:44]  She was heedless of her end.
[00:16:47]  She has descended astonishingly.
[00:16:51]  There is no one to comfort her.
[00:16:54]  See, O Hashem, my suffering, for the enemy has acted prodigiously.
[00:17:04]  The enemy spread out his hands on all her treasures.
[00:17:07]  Indeed, she saw nations invade her sanctuary.
[00:17:12]  Nations about whom you had commanded that they should not enter your congregation.
[00:17:20]  All her people are sighing, searching for bread.
[00:17:25]  They traded with their enemies for food to restore the soul.
[00:17:32]  See, O HaShem, and behold what a glutton I have become.
[00:17:41]  May it not befall you, all who pass by this road.
[00:17:46]  Behold and see, if there is any pain like my pain, which befell me, which Hashem has afflicted me on the day of His burning wrath.
[00:17:58]  From on high he sent a fire into my bones, and it overcame them.
[00:18:04]  He spread a net from my feet.
[00:18:07]  He hurled me backwards.
[00:18:09]  He made me desolate, sick throughout the day.
[00:18:14]  The burden of my transgressions was accumulated in his hand.
[00:18:20]  They were knit together and thrust upon my neck.
[00:18:24]  He sapped my strength.
[00:18:27]  The Lord has delivered me into the hands of those I cannot withstand.
[00:18:34]  The Lord has trampled all my heroes in my midst.
[00:18:39]  He proclaimed a set time against me to crush my young men.
[00:18:45]  As in a winepress, the Lord has trodden the maiden daughter of Judah.
[00:18:52]  Over these do I weep.
[00:18:54]  My eye continuously runs with water because of a comforter to restore my soul is far from me.
[00:19:05]  My children have become forlorn because the enemy has prevailed.
[00:19:10]  Zion spreads out her hands.
[00:19:20]  There is none to comfort her.
[00:19:23]  Hashem commanded against Jacob that his enemies should surround him.
[00:19:30]  Jerusalem has become as one unclean in their midst.
[00:19:36]  Hashem is righteous, for I disobeyed his utterance.
[00:19:43]  Listen now, all you people, and come see my pain.
[00:19:49]  Listen now, all you people, and see my pain.
[00:19:53]  My maidens and my youths have gone into captivity.
[00:20:06]  I called for my paramours, but they deceived me.
[00:20:11]  My priests and my elders perished in the city as they sought food for themselves to restore their souls.
[00:20:20]  See, Hashem, for I am in distress.
[00:20:31]  My innards burn.
[00:20:33]  My heart is turned over inside of me, for I rebelled grievously.
[00:20:40]  Outside the sword bereaved, inside was death-like.
[00:20:48]  They heard how I sighed.
[00:20:50]  There was none to comfort me.
[00:20:53]  All my enemies heard of my plight and rejoiced, for it was you who did it.
[00:21:00]  Oh, bring on the day you proclaimed and let them be like me.
[00:21:07]  Let all their wickedness come before you and inflict them as you inflicted me for all my transgressions.
[00:21:18]  For my groans are many and my heart is sick.
[00:21:21]  Echa, alas.
[00:21:33]  Thanks.
[00:21:35]  The Lord in His anger has clouded the daughter of Zion.
[00:21:40]  He cast down from heaven to earth the glory of Israel.
[00:21:46]  He did not remember His footstool on the day of His wrath.
[00:21:52]  The Lord consumed without pity all the dwellings of Jacob.
[00:21:57]  In his anger, he razed the fortresses of the daughter of Judah down to the ground.
[00:22:04]  He profaned the kingdom and its leaders.
[00:22:11]  He cut down in burning anger all the dignity of Israel.
[00:22:17]  He drew back his right hand in the presence of the enemy.
[00:22:20]  He burned through Jacob like a flaming fire, consuming on all sides.
[00:22:26]  He bent his bow like an enemy, his right hand poised like a foe.
[00:22:32]  He slew all those who were pleasant to the eye.
[00:22:37]  In the tent of the daughter of Zion, he poured out his wrath like fire.
[00:22:49]  The Lord became like an enemy.
[00:22:51]  He consumed Israel.
[00:22:54]  He consumed all her citadels.
[00:22:58]  He destroyed its fortresses.
[00:23:01]  He increased within the daughter of Judah agony and grief.
[00:23:07]  He stripped his booth like a garden.
[00:23:10]  He destroyed his place of assembly.
[00:23:14]  He destroyed his place of assembly.
[00:23:43]  of assembly.
[00:23:44]  Hashem made Zion oblivious of festivals and Shabbats.
[00:23:50]  And in his fierce anger, he spurned the king and the Kohen.
[00:24:00]  The Lord rejected his altar, abolished his sanctuary.
[00:24:04]  He handed over the hand of the enemy the walls of her citadels.
[00:24:12]  They raised a clamor in the Temple of Hashem as though it were a festival.
[00:24:21]  Hashem resolved to destroy the wall of the Daughter of Zion.
[00:24:26]  He stretched out the line and did not draw back His hand from consuming.
[00:24:33]  Indeed, He made a rampart and wall mourn.
[00:24:39]  He made Rampart and Wall mourn.
[00:24:42]  And together they languished.
[00:24:49]  Her gates have sunk into the earth.
[00:24:53]  He has destroyed and broken her bars.
[00:24:57]  Her king and her officers are among the nations.
[00:25:03]  There is no Torah.
[00:25:05]  Her prophets, too, find no vision from Hashem.
[00:25:09]  They sit on the ground, and they are not able to see.
[00:25:13]  They sit on the ground.
[00:25:18]  They are silent.
[00:25:20]  The elders of the daughters of Zion.
[00:25:24]  They have strewn ashes on their heads, have girdled themselves in sackcloth, The maidens of Jerusalem have bowed their heads to the ground.
[00:25:40]  My eyes fail with tears.
[00:25:43]  My innards burn.
[00:25:44]  My liver spills on the ground at the ruination of the daughter of my people, while babes and sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
[00:25:57]  They say to their mothers, Where is grain and wine?
[00:26:03]  And they swoon like a dying man in the streets of the town as their soul ebbs away in their mother's laps.
[00:26:16]  With what shall I bear witness for you?
[00:26:20]  To what can I compare you, O daughter of Jerusalem?
[00:26:24]  To what can I liken you that I may comfort you, O maiden daughter of Zion?
[00:26:33]  Your ruin is as vast as the sea.
[00:26:36]  Who can heal you?
[00:26:40]  Your prophets envisioned for you vanity and foolishness, and they did not expose your iniquity to bring you back in repentance.
[00:26:52]  They envisioned for you oracles of vanity and deception.
[00:26:56]  All who pass along the way clap hands at you.
[00:27:06]  They whistle and wag their heads at the daughters of Jerusalem.
[00:27:11]  Could this be the city that was called perfect in beauty?
[00:27:15]  Joy of all the earth?
[00:27:22]  All your enemies open their mouths wide at you.
[00:27:26]  They whistle and gnash their teeth.
[00:27:30]  They say, we have devoured her.
[00:27:33]  Indeed, this is the day we longed for.
[00:27:37]  We have found it.
[00:27:38]  We have seen it.
[00:27:43]  Hashem has done what He has planned.
[00:27:48]  He carried out His decree.
[00:27:53]  Which he ordained from the days of old.
[00:27:59]  He devastated.
[00:28:01]  He did not pity.
[00:28:02]  He let the enemy rejoice over you.
[00:28:08]  He raised the pride of your foes.
[00:28:17]  Their heart cried out to the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion.
[00:28:22]  Shed tears like a river, day and night.
[00:28:25]  Give yourself no respite.
[00:28:27]  Do not let the apple of your eye be still.

=== Prayer For Mercy (11:09) ===

[00:28:35]  Arise, cry out at night in the beginning of the watches.
[00:28:40]  Pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord.
[00:28:44]  Lift up your hands to Him for the life of your young children who swoon from hunger at every street corner.
[00:28:54]  See, O HaShem, and behold whom you have treated so.
[00:28:59]  Should women eat their own offspring?
[00:29:03]  The babes of their care?
[00:29:05]  Should Cohen and Prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
[00:29:14]  Out on the ground, in the streets they lie, young and old.
[00:29:19]  My maidens and my young men have fallen by the sword.
[00:29:23]  You slew them on the day of your wrath.
[00:29:26]  You slaughtered them.
[00:29:27]  You showed no mercy.
[00:29:32]  You invited, as on a festival time, my evil neighbors round about, so that at the day of Hashem's wrath there was no survivor or escapee.
[00:29:45]  Those I cherished and brought up, my enemies has wiped out.
[00:30:02]  I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of his anger.
[00:30:13]  He has led me and driven me into darkness and not light.
[00:30:19]  Only against me did he turn his hand all day long.
[00:30:24]  He has worn away my flesh and skin.
[00:30:34]  He has broken my bones.
[00:30:36]  He has besieged me and encircled me with bitterness and travail.
[00:30:41]  He has placed me in darkness like the eternally dead.
[00:30:45]  He has walled me in so that I cannot escape.
[00:31:01]  He has weighed down my chain.
[00:31:05]  Though I would cry out and plead, he shut out my prayer.
[00:31:11]  He walled up my roads with hewn stone.
[00:31:17]  He distorted my paths.
[00:31:19]  He is a lurking bear to me.
[00:31:30]  A lion in hiding.
[00:31:34]  He has strewn my paths with thorns and made me tread carefully.
[00:31:40]  He made me desolate.
[00:31:43]  He bent his bow and set me up as a target for the arrow.
[00:31:49]  He shot into my vitals the arrow of his quiver.
[00:31:55]  I have become a laughingstock to all my people.
[00:31:59]  Object of their jibes all day long.
[00:32:06]  He filled me with bitterness, sated me with wormwood.
[00:32:14]  He ground my teeth on gravel.
[00:32:18]  He made me cower in ashes.
[00:32:21]  My soul despaired of having peace.
[00:32:24]  I have forgotten goodness and I said, Lost is my strength and my expectation from Hashem.
[00:32:35]  Remember my afflictions and my sorrow, the wormwood and the bitterness.
[00:32:59]  My soul remembers well and makes me despondent.
[00:33:03]  Yet this I bear in mind.
[00:33:06]  Therefore, I still hope.
[00:33:08]  Hashem's kindness surely has not ended.
[00:33:18]  it.
[00:33:19]  We'll see you next time.
[00:33:20]  Nor are His mercies exhausted.
[00:33:24]  They are new every morning.
[00:33:27]  Great is your faithfulness.
[00:33:30]  Hashem is my portion, says my soul.
[00:33:34]  Therefore, I have hope in Him.
[00:33:39]  Hashem is good to those who trust in Him.
[00:33:42]  To the soul that seeks Him.
[00:33:51]  It is good to hope silently for Hashem's salvation.
[00:33:57]  It is good for a man that he bear a yoke in his youth.
[00:34:00]  Let one sit in solitude and be submissive, for he has laid it upon him.
[00:34:15]  Let him put his mouth to the dust.
[00:34:18]  There may yet be hope.
[00:34:22]  Let one offer his cheek to his smitter.
[00:34:27]  Let him be filled with disgrace.
[00:34:33]  For the Lord does not reject forever.
[00:34:38]  He first afflicts, then pities, according to his abundant kindness.
[00:34:45]  For he does not torment capriciously, nor afflict man.
[00:34:53]  To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth?
[00:34:57]  To deny a man justice in the presence of the Most High?
[00:35:01]  To wrong a man in his conflict the Lord does not approve?
[00:35:10]  Whose decree was ever fulfilled if the Lord did not ordain it?
[00:35:16]  Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that evil and good emanate?
[00:35:23]  Of what shall a living man complain?
[00:35:26]  A man for his sins.
[00:35:32]  That's what a man should complain.
[00:35:34]  A man for his sins.
[00:35:40]  Let us search and examine our ways and return to Hashem.
[00:35:47]  Let us lift our hearts with our hands to God in heaven.
[00:35:53]  We have transgressed and rebelled.
[00:35:57]  You have not forgiven.
[00:36:03]  You have enveloped yourself in anger and pursued us.
[00:36:06]  You have slain.
[00:36:08]  You have not shown mercy.
[00:36:10]  You wrapped yourself in a cloud that prayer cannot pierce.
[00:36:16]  You made us filth and refuse among the nations.
[00:36:23]  All our enemies opened their mouths wide at us.
[00:36:27]  Panic and pitifulness were ours.
[00:36:30]  Ravage and ruin.
[00:36:33]  Our eye runs with streams of water at the ruination of my people.
[00:36:40]  My eye will flow and will not cease without relief until Hashem looks down and takes notice from heaven.
[00:36:50]  My eyes have brought me grief over all the daughters of my city.
[00:36:56]  Huh.
[00:36:57]  I have been constantly ensnared like a bird by my enemies without cause.
[00:37:20]  Thank you.
[00:37:22]  They cut off my life in a pit and threw stones at me.
[00:37:26]  Water flowed over my head.
[00:37:28]  I said, I am doomed.
[00:37:32]  I called on your name, Hashem, from the depth of the pit.
[00:37:38]  You have heard my voice.
[00:37:40]  Do not shut your ear from my prayer, from my cry.
[00:37:44]  You drew near on that day I would call to you.
[00:37:47]  You said, fear not!
[00:37:50]  You championed my cause.
[00:37:53]  Oh Lord, you redeemed my life.
[00:37:56]  You have seen, Hashem, the injustices that I suffer.
[00:38:01]  Judge my cause!
[00:38:03]  You have seen all their vengeance.
[00:38:07]  All their designs regarding me.
[00:38:08]  You have heard their insults.
[00:38:12]  Hashem, all their designs against me.
[00:38:15]  The speech of my enemies and their thoughts are against me all day long.
[00:38:26]  Look at their sitting and their rising.
[00:38:29]  I am the butt of their taunts.
[00:38:34]  Pay them back their due, Hashem.
[00:38:39]  As they have done.
[00:38:42]  Give them a broken heart.
[00:38:45]  May your curse be upon them.
[00:38:49]  pursue them in anger and destroy them from under the heavens of Hashem.
[00:38:55]  Echad, Echad, Echad, Hashem, Echad.
[00:39:22]  Alas!

=== Even Jackals Suckle Young (14:42) ===

[00:39:37]  The gold is dimmed.
[00:39:39]  The finest gold is changed.
[00:39:43]  Sacred stones are scattered at the head of every street.
[00:39:49]  The precious children of Zion, who are comparable to fine gold.
[00:39:56]  Alas, they are now treated like earthen jugs, work of a potter.
[00:40:03]  Even jackals will offer the breast and suckle their young.
[00:40:11]  The daughter of my people has become cruel like ostriches in the desert.
[00:40:16]  Wow.
[00:40:25]  You Even jackals will offer the breast and suckle their young.
[00:40:33]  The daughter of my people has become cruel, like ostriches in the desert.
[00:40:38]  The tongue of the suckling cleaves to its palate for thirst.
[00:40:48]  Young children plead for bread.
[00:40:51]  No one extends it to them.
[00:40:55]  Those who feasted extravagantly lie desolate in the streets.
[00:41:03]  Those who were brought up in scarlet clothing embrace garbage heaps.
[00:41:11]  The iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the sin of Sodom, which was overturned in a moment, though not mortal hands were laid on her.
[00:41:27]  her crowned ones, who were purer than snow, whiter than milk, whose complexion was ruddier than rubies,
[00:41:35]  whose build was solid like sapphire.
[00:41:40]  Their appearance has become blacker than soot.
[00:41:51]  it.
[00:41:51]  Thank you.
[00:41:52]  They are not recognized in the streets.
[00:41:55]  Their skin is shriveled on their bones.
[00:41:59]  It became dry as wood.
[00:42:03]  More fortunate were those slain by the sword than those slain by famine.
[00:42:09]  for they pine away, stricken, lacking the fruit of the field.
[00:42:15]  More fortunate were those slain by the sword than those slain by famine.
[00:42:27]  For they pine away, stricken, lacking the fruits of the field.
[00:42:36]  The hands of compassionate women have boiled their own children.
[00:42:41]  They became their food in the ruination of the daughter of my people.
[00:42:47]  HaShem vented His fury.
[00:42:50]  He poured out His burning anger.
[00:42:53]  He kindled a fire in Zion, which consumed its foundations.
[00:42:59]  The kings of the earth did not believe, nor did any of the world inhabitants, that the adversary or enemy could enter the gates of Jerusalem.
[00:43:11]  It was for the sins of her prophets, the iniquities of her priests,
[00:43:17]  who had shed in her midst the blood of the righteous.
[00:43:34]  you The blind wandered through the streets, defiled with blood,
[00:43:40]  so that none could touch their garments.
[00:43:42]  Away, unclean one, people shouted at them.
[00:43:51]  Away!
[00:43:52]  Away!
[00:43:53]  Don't touch!
[00:43:55]  For they are loathsome and wander about.
[00:44:00]  The nations had said, they will no longer sojourn here.
[00:44:07]  Anger of Hashem has divided them, caring for them no longer.
[00:44:14]  They showed no regard for the Kohanim, nor did they favor the elders.
[00:44:21]  Our eyes still strained in vain for our deliverance.
[00:44:25]  In our expectations, we watched for a nation that could not save.
[00:44:32]  They dogged our steps so we could not walk in our streets.
[00:44:37]  An end drew near.
[00:44:39]  Our days are filled, for our end has come.
[00:44:46]  Our pursuers were swifter than eagles of the sky.
[00:44:50]  They chased us in the mountains, ambushed us in the deserts.
[00:44:55]  The breath of our nostrils, Hashem's anointed, was caught in their traps.
[00:45:02]  He, under whose protection we have said we would live among the nations.
[00:45:08]  Wow.
[00:45:30]  Hmm.
[00:45:30]  Roach, a pain of machine.
[00:45:40]  I had don't know.
[00:45:59]  The breath of our nostrils.
[00:46:01]  Hashem's anointed was caught in their traps.
[00:46:05]  Thank you.
[00:46:09]  He, under whose protection we had said we would live among the nations.
[00:46:27]  Rejoice and exalt, O daughters of Edom, who dwells in the land of Uz.
[00:46:33]  Bye.
[00:46:33]  Thank you.
[00:46:35]  To you, too, will the cup pass, You will become drunk and you will vomit.
[00:46:42]  Your iniquity is expiated, O daughter of Zion.
[00:46:56]  He will not exile you again.
[00:47:00]  He remembers your iniquity, daughter of Edom.
[00:47:06]  He will uncover your sins.
[00:47:18]  Remember, Hashem, what has befallen us.
[00:47:28]  Look and see our disgrace.
[00:47:31]  Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our houses to foreigners.
[00:47:38]  We have become like orphans and there is no father.
[00:47:41]  Our mothers are like widows.
[00:47:44]  We pay money to drink our own water.
[00:47:49]  Obtain our wood at a price.
[00:47:52]  Upon our necks we are pursued.
[00:47:54]  We toil, but nothing is left of us.
[00:47:58]  We stretched out a hand to Egypt and to Assyria to be satisfied with bread.
[00:48:06]  Our fathers have sinned and are no more.
[00:48:10]  And we have suffered for their iniquities.
[00:48:15]  Our fathers have sinned and are no more.
[00:48:19]  and we have suffered for their iniquities.
[00:48:22]  We stretched out a hand to Egypt and to Assyria to be satisfied with bread.
[00:48:40]  Our fathers have sinned and are no more.
[00:48:44]  And we have suffered for their iniquities.
[00:48:48]  Slaves ruled us.
[00:48:51]  There is no redeemer from their hands.
[00:48:56]  In mortal danger, we bring our bread because of the sword of the wilderness.
[00:49:07]  Our skin was scorched like an oven with the fever of famine.
[00:49:13]  They ravaged women in Zion, maidens in the towns of Judah.
[00:49:18]  Leaders were hanged by their hand.
[00:49:22]  Elders were shown no respect.
[00:49:24]  Leaders were hanged by their hand.
[00:49:35]  Elders were shown no respect.
[00:49:39]  Young men drag the millstone and youths stumble under the wood.
[00:49:46]  The elders are gone from the gate.
[00:49:49]  The young men from their music.
[00:49:53]  Gone is the joy of our hearts.
[00:49:56]  Our dancing has turned into mourning.
[00:50:02]  The crown of our head has fallen.
[00:50:06]  Woe to us.
[00:50:08]  For we have sinned.
[00:50:14]  For this, our heart was ill.
[00:50:18]  For these, our eyes were dimmed.
[00:50:23]  For Mount Zion, which lies desolate, foxes prowl over it.
[00:50:33]  Yet you, Hashem, are enthroned forever.
[00:50:40]  Your throne is ageless.
[00:50:46]  Why do you ignore us eternally?
[00:50:49]  Forsake us for so long?
[00:50:53]  Bring us back to you, Hashem, and we shall return.
[00:51:00]  Renew our days as of old.
[00:51:05]  For even if you had utterly rejected us, you have already raged sufficiently against us.
[00:51:11]  Why do you ignore us eternally?
[00:51:30]  Forsake us for so long.
[00:51:36]  Bring us back to you, Hashem, and we shall return.
[00:51:42]  Renew our days as of old.
[00:51:47]  For even if you had utterly rejected us, you have already ravaged sufficiently against us.
[00:51:56]  For even if you had utterly rejected us, you have already raged sufficiently against us.
[00:52:03]  For even if you had utterly rejected us, you have already raged sufficiently against us.
[00:52:18]  Thank you for joining us.
[00:52:20]  Bring us back to you, Hashem, and we shall return.
[00:52:26]  Renew our days as of old.
[00:52:30]  Hashiveinu Adonai eylecha, ve'nashuva chadei shemenu kekedem.
[00:52:38]  Hashiveinu Adonai eylecha v'nashuva chadesh yameinu kekedem.
[00:52:47]  Hashizeynu Adonai Eylecha, V'nashuva Chadesh Y'meinu Kekedem.
[00:52:56]  Thank you, Adonai.
[00:53:08]  Bye.
[00:53:10]  For teaching us, and leading us, evolving us, growing us, and bringing us to the place that we are at now.
[00:53:24]  I humbly ask that you save us from peril.
[00:53:30]  Your punishments have been sufficient, even if you don't want us anymore.
[00:53:38]  Please let them cease.
[00:53:44]  And please, for the sake of your beautiful world that you built, please come dwell here again, for your sake, for the world that you built, which is masterful.

=== Thank You For Tuning In (00:43) ===

[00:54:02]  I love you, Adonai.
[00:54:05]  You are my Savior.
[00:54:06]  You are my God.
[00:54:12]  You are my everything.
[00:54:17]  Thank you.
[00:54:17]  Thank you for tuning in, everybody.
