# The Lord has covered the daughter of Zion under the cloud of his anger
This speaks of the Lord's anger as if it were a dark cloud.
# the daughter of Zion
This is a poetic name for the city of Jerusalem. Translate it as you did in Lamentations 1:6.
# He has thrown the splendor of Israel down from heaven to earth
"Jerusalem, the splendor of Israel, has lost all favor with the Lord"
# He has not remembered his footstool
"He disregarded Jerusalem as his footstool"
# on the day of his anger
"at the time when he displayed his anger"
