Lamentations 1:16–20
and my eyes overflow with tears.z
No one is near to comforta me,
no one to restore my spirit.
My children are destitute
because the enemy has prevailed.”b
17 Zion stretches out her hands,c
but there is no one to comfort her.
The Lord has decreed for Jacob
that his neighbors become his foes;d
Jerusalem has become
an uncleane thingf among them.
18 “The Lord is righteous,g
yet I rebelledh against his command.
Listen, all you peoples;
look on my suffering.i
My young men and young women
have gone into exile.j
19 “I called to my alliesk
but they betrayed me.
My priests and my elders
perishedl in the city
while they searched for food
to keep themselves alive.
20 “See, Lord, how distressedm I am!
I am in tormentn within,
and in my heart I am disturbed,o
for I have been most rebellious.p
Outside, the sword bereaves;
inside, there is only death.q
