13 Therefore my people go into exile
lfor lack of knowledge;
their mhonored men go hungry,
and their multitude is parched with thirst.

Lamentations 4:2
The precious sons of Zion,
worth their weight in fine gold,
how they are regarded as earthen pots,
the work of a potter’s hands!
Lamentations 4:7–8
Her princes were purer than snow,
whiter than milk;
their bodies were more ruddy than coral,
the beauty of their form was like sapphire.
Now their face is blacker than soot;
they are not recognized in the streets;
their skin has shriveled on their bones;
it has become as dry as wood.
