בֵּ֧ית קָדְשֵׁ֣נוּ וְתִפְאַרְתֵּ֗נוּ אֲשֶׁ֤ר הִֽלְל֙וּךָ֙ אֲבֹתֵ֔ינוּ הָיָ֖ה לִשְׂרֵ֣פַת אֵ֑שׁ וְכָל־מַחֲמַדֵּ֖ינוּ הָיָ֥ה לְחָרְבָּֽה׃
我們聖潔榮美的殿,就是我們列祖讚美你的地方,已被火焚燒;我們一切所珍愛的,都成了廢墟。
Nefesh HaChayim
Similarly, any sin or transgression of a Jew when he permits the entrance of anger or evil thoughts/lusts into his heart ח''ו it is as if he brought an alien fire upon the altar. Meaning to say: A man in actuality through his thoughts and deeds brings a devouring fire to His house, which was our glory and splendor, May the Merciful One save us, May he be Blessed.
