Lamentations 4:7-11
7Her nobles were purer than snowH7950, they were whiter than milkH2461;They were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was as of sapphireH5601.8Their visage isH1961 blacker than a coal; they are not known in the streetsH2351:Their skinH5785 cleaveth to their bonesH6106; it isH1961 witheredH3001, it isH1961 becomeH1961 like a stick.9They that are slainH2491 with the swordH2719 are betterH2896 than they that are slainH2491 with hungerH7458;For these pine away, stricken through, for want of the fruitsH8570 of the fieldH7704.10The handsH3027 of the pitiful womenH802 have boiledH1310 their own childrenH3206;They wereH1961 their food in the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.11Jehovah hath accomplished his wrathH2534, he hath pouredH8210 out his fierce angerH639;And he hath kindledH3341 a fireH784 in ZionH6726, which hath devouredH398 the foundationsH3247 thereof.
