**אָפֵס הוֹד כְּבוּדָה** נֶאֱלָמָה דַּבְּרָנִית. בְּשֵׁפֶל יָשְׁבָה הֻתָּשָׁה נֶחֱלָשָׁה גְּבַרְתָּנִית. גַּם סוּגָה נוּגָה נְסוּגָה אֲחוֹרַנִּית. דֻּלָּלָה אֻמְלָלָה לְוִיָּה אַהֲרוֹנִית עֵירָנִית:

**The Metsudah Selichos: translated and annotated by Rabbi Avrohom Davis, Metsudah Publications, 1986:**
The glory of the honored [Israel] has ceased, the eloquent spokesman is silenced. She dwells in depression, weak and feeble is she who was once a proud ruler. She who was protected like a delicate rose, sits in mourning, turned backwards; diminished and despondent are her Levites and Aharonites [Priests], and villagers.

הַהֻלָּלָה זֻלָּלָה חֻלָּלָה וּכְסוֹטָה פְרוּעָה. וְנִזְרֵית כְּמוֹ דָוָה וְנִטְמֵאת כִּצְרוּעָה. זֵרָהּ נִזְרָהּ חֻלַּל וּפְרָזוֹן גְּדוּעָה. חָזְרָה נִתְפַּזְּרָה בְּאֶרֶץ לֹא זְרוּעָה:

**The Metsudah Selichos: translated and annotated by Rabbi Avrohom Davis, Metsudah Publications, 1986:**
The praiseworthy one has been vilified profaned as an unfaithful wife, cast aside like a *niddah*,² impure as a *metzorah*.³ Her crown and glory are profaned, her strongholds cut off, she is again dispersed in an uncultivated land.

footnotes:
² A woman in menstruation is prohibited from being intimate with her husband.
³ A spiritual disease, often mistakenly interpreted as leprosy.

**The Metsudah Selichos: translated and annotated by Rabbi Avrohom Davis, Metsudah Publications, 1986:**
Your flock—amid turmoil and anger— has been devoured by the unclean, he gnashes his teeth, he runs to swallow them— [to satisfy his] hunger and thirst. The powers of Your might [Oh God]— where and how will it become known? [Punish those] who offer incense to idols time and time again.

**The Metsudah Selichos: translated and annotated by Rabbi Avrohom Davis, Metsudah Publications, 1986:**
The long rule of the rebellious— why have You made it permanent? The degenerate rules over the prince, the evil one rules over the nobleman. His hope is on You, save him who is called by Your Name; be a help to him, a stronghold and a refuge.
