2  ^eShe weeps bitterly in the night,

with tears on her cheeks;

^famong all her lovers

she has ^gnone to comfort her;

^hall her friends have dealt treacherously with her;

they have become her enemies.

9  Her uncleanness was ^ain her skirts;

^bshe took no thought of her future;¹

therefore her fall is terrible;

^cshe has no comforter.

“O Lord, behold my affliction,

for the enemy has ^dtriumphed!”

16  “For these things ^sI weep;

my eyes flow with tears;

for ^ta comforter is far from me,

one to ^urevive my spirit;

my children are desolate,

for the enemy has prevailed.”

17  ^vZion stretches out her hands,

but ^tthere is none to comfort her;

the Lord has commanded against Jacob

that his neighbors should be his foes;

Jerusalem has become

a filthy thing among them.

21  “They heard^{1 d}my groaning,

yet ^ethere is no one to comfort me.

All my enemies have heard of my trouble;

^fthey are glad that you have done it.

You have brought² the day you announced;

^fnow let them be as I am.
