Lamentations 4:8-10

8But now they are blacker than soot; they are not recognized in the streets. Their skin has shriveled on their bones; it has become as dry as a stick.

9Those killed by the sword are better off than those who die of famine; racked with hunger, they waste away for lack of food from the field.

10With their own hands compassionate women have cooked their own children, who became their food when my people were destroyed.
