Lamentations 2:4
He hath bent his bow like an enemy: he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he poured out his fury like fire.
KJV
Tetendit arcum suum quasi inimicus, firmavit dexteram suam quasi hostis, et occidit omne quod pulchrum erat visu in tabernaculo filiæ Sion ; effudit quasi ignem indignationem suam.
Vulgate
Δάλεθ. Ἐνέτεινεν τόξον αὐτοῦ ὡς ἐχθρὸς ὑπεναντίος, ἐστερέωσεν δεξιὰν αὐτοῦ ὡς ὑπεναντίος, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν πάντα τὰ ἐπιθυμήματα ὀφθαλμῶν μου ἐν σκηνῇ θυγατρὸς Σειών, ἐξέχεεν ὡς πῦρ τὸν θυμὸν αὐτοῦ.
LXX
He hath bent his bow like an enemy, he hath stood with his right hand as an adversary, And hath slain all that were pleasant to the eye: In the tent of the daughter of Zion he hath poured out his wrath like fire.
