Lamentations 4:8-10

8Now their appearance is blacker than soot; They go unrecognized in the streets; Their skin clings to their bones, It has become as dry as wood.

9Those slain by the sword are better off Than those who die of hunger; For these pine away, Stricken for lack of the fruits of the field.

10The hands of the compassionate women Have cooked their own children; They became food for them In the destruction of the daughter of my people.
