Lamentations 5:20

¹⁸ Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.

¹⁹ Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation.

Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time?

²¹ Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.

²² But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
