Verse 4 is found in chapter 2 of Lamentations. The withdrawal of divine strength and favor appears through intense military imagery. The Lord is portrayed as Jerusalem’s enemy within the context of judgment, a theological reversal that explains why no human defense could stop the calamity. The language insists that the tragedy was not accidental.
