Lamentations 1:1
How Lonely Sits the City
1 How lonely sits the city
that was full of people!
How like a awidow has she become,
she who was great among the nations!
She who was a princess among the provinces
has become a slave.
Lamentations 2:1
The Lord Has Destroyed Without Pity
1 How the Lord in his anger
has set the daughter of Zion under a cloud!
He has cast down from heaven to earth
the splendor of Israel;
he has not remembered his sfootstool
in the day of his anger.
Lamentations 4:1
The Holy Stones Lie Scattered
1 How the gold has grown dim,
how the pure gold is changed!
The holy stones lie scattered
mat the head of every street.
