Other translations have "shall I, or how will I return to the temple. (Brenton) (2:5) And I said, I am cast out of thy presence: shall I indeed look again toward thy holy temple?

(CEV) I thought I was swept away from your sight, never again to see your holy temple.

(GNB) I thought I had been banished from your presence and would never see your holy Temple again.
