78:59 God heard and was angry;
he completely rejected Israel.
78:60 He abandoned 1 the sanctuary at Shiloh,
the tent where he lived among men.
78:61 He allowed the symbol of his strong presence to be captured; 2
he gave the symbol of his splendor 3 into the hand of the enemy. 4
78:62 He delivered his people over to the sword,
and was angry with his chosen nation. 5
78:63 Fire consumed their 6 young men,
and their 7 virgins remained unmarried. 8
78:64 Their 9 priests fell by the sword,
but their 10 widows did not weep. 11
