Lamentations 4:3-12

3EvenH1571 the jackals drawH3243 outH3243 the breastH7699, they give suckH3243 to their youngH1482 ones: the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 is become cruelH393, like the ostrichesH3283 in the wildernessH4057.

4The tongueH3956 of the sucking childH5768 cleaveth to the roofH2441 of his mouthH2441 for thirstH6772: the young childrenH5768 askH7592 breadH3899, and noH369 manH369 breaketh it unto them.

5They that did feedH398 delicately are desolateH8074 in the streetsH2351: they that were brought upH5921 in scarletH8438 embraceH2263 dung-hills.

6For the iniquityH5771 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 is greaterH1431 thanH3808 the sinH2403 of SodomH5467, that was overthrownH2015 as in a momentH7281, and noH3808 handsH3027 were laid uponH3027 herH1323.

7Her nobles were purerH2141 than snowH7950, they were whiterH6705 than milkH2461, they were more ruddyH119 in bodyH6106 than rubies, their polishingH1508 was as of sapphireH5601:

8Their visage is blackerH2821 thanH3808 a coal; they are notH3808 knownH3808 in the streetsH2351: their skinH5785 cleaveth to their bonesH6106; it is witheredH3001, it is becomeH1961 like a stickH6086.

9They that be slainH2491 with the swordH2719 are betterH2896 thanH2896 they that be slainH2491 with hungerH7458; for theseH1992 pineH2100 awayH2100, strickenH1856 throughH1856, for want of the fruitsH8570 of the fieldH7704.

10The handsH3027 of the pitiful womenH802 have sodden their ownH1961 childrenH3206; they were their meat in the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.

11The LORDH3068 hath accomplishedH3615 his furyH2534, he hath pouredH8210 outH8210 his fierceH2740 angerH639; and he hath kindledH3341 a fireH784 in ZionH6726, whichH784 hath devouredH398 the foundationsH3247 thereof.

12The kingsH4428 of the earthH776 believedH539 notH3808, neitherH3808 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398, that the adversary and the enemyH341 should enterH935 intoH935 the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389.
