Lamentations 1

1How doth the city^H5892 sit^H3427 solitary^H910, that was full^H7227 of people^H5971! She is become as a widow^H490, that was great^H7227 among the nations^H1471! She that was a princess^H8282 among the provinces^H4082 is become tributary^H4522! 2She weepeth^H1058 sore^H1058 in the night^H3915, and her tears^H1832 are on her cheeks^H3895; Among all her lovers^H157 she hath none to comfort^H5162 her: All her friends^H7453 have dealt treacherously^H898 with her; they are become her enemies^H341. 3Judah^H3063 is gone into captivity^H1540 because of affliction^H6040, and because of great^H7230 servitude^H5656; She dwelleth^H3427 among the nations^H1471, she findeth^H4672 no rest^H4494: All her persecutors^H7291 overtook^H5381 her within the straits^H4712. 4The ways^H1870 of Zion^H6726 do mourn^H57, because none come^H935 to the solemn assembly^H4150; All her gates^H8179 are desolate^H8074, her priests^H3548 do sigh^H584: Her virgins^H1330 are afflicted^H3013, and she herself is in bitterness^H4843. 5Her adversaries^H6862 are become the head^H7218, her enemies^H341 prosper^H7951; For Jehovah^H3068 hath afflicted^H3013 her for the multitude^H7230 of her transgressions^H6588: Her young children^H5768 are gone^H1980 into captivity^H7628 before^H6440 the adversary^H6862. 6And from the daughter^H1323 of Zion^H6726 all her majesty^H1926 is departed^H3318: Her princes^H8269 are become like harts^H354 that find^H4672 no pasture^H4829, And they are gone^H3212 without strength^H3581 before^H6440 the pursuer^H7291. 7Jerusalem^H3389 remembereth^H2142 in the days^H3117 of her affliction^H6040 and of her miseries^H4788 all her pleasant things^H4262 that were from the days^H3117 of old^H6924: When her people^H5971 fell^H5307 into the hand^H3027 of the adversary^H6862, and none did help^H5826 her, The adversaries^H6862 saw^H7200 her, they did mock^H7832 at her desolations^H4868. 8Jerusalem^H3389 hath grievously^H2399 sinned^H2398; therefore she is become^H5206 as an unclean thing; All that honored^H3513 her despise^H2107 her, because they have seen^H7200 her nakedness^H6172: Yea, she sigheth^H584, and turneth^H7725 backward^H268. 9Her filthiness^H2932 was in her skirts^H7757; she remembered^H2142 not her latter end^H319; Therefore is she come down^H3381 wonderfully^H6382; she hath no comforter^H5162: Behold^H7200, O Jehovah^H3068, my affliction^H6040; for the enemy^H341 hath magnified^H1431 himself. 10The adversary^H6862 hath spread out^H6566 his hand^H3027 upon all her pleasant things^H4261: For she hath seen^H7200 that the nations^H1471 are entered^H935 into her sanctuary^H4720, Concerning whom thou didst command^H6680 that they should not enter^H935 into thine assembly^H6951. 11All her people^H5971 sigh^H584, they seek^H1245 bread^H3899; They have given^H5414 their pleasant things^H4261 for food^H400 to refresh^H7725 the soul^H5315: See^H7200, O Jehovah^H3068, and behold^H5027; for I am become abject^H2151. 12Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass^H5674 by^H1870? Behold^H5027, and see^H7200 if there be^H3426 any sorrow^H4341 like unto my sorrow^H4341, which is brought^H5953 upon me, Wherewith Jehovah^H3068 hath afflicted^H3013 me in the day^H3117 of his fierce^H2740 anger^H639. 13From on high^H4791 hath he sent^H7971 fire^H784 into my bones^H6106, and it prevaileth^H7287 against them; He hath spread^H6566 a net^H7568 for my feet^H7272, he hath turned^H7725 me back^H268: He hath made^H5414 me desolate^H8074 and faint^H1739 all the day^H3117. 14The yoke^H5923 of my transgressions^H6588 is bound^H8244 by his hand^H3027; They are knit^H8276 together, they are come up^H5927 upon my neck^H6677; He hath made my strength^H3581 to fail^H3782: The Lord^H136 hath delivered^H5414 me into their hands^H3027, against whom I am not able^H3201 to stand^H6965. 15The Lord^H136 hath set at nought^H5541 all my mighty^H47 men in the midst^H7130 of me; He hath called^H7121 a solemn assembly^H4150 against me to crush^H7665 my young men^H970: The Lord^H136 hath trodden^H1869 as in a winepress^H1660 the virgin^H1330 daughter^H1323 of Judah^H3063. 16For these things I weep^H1058; mine eye^H5869, mine eye^H5869 runneth down^H3381 with water^H4325; Because the comforter^H5162 that should refresh^H7725 my soul^H5315 is far^H7368 from me: My children^H1121 are desolate^H8074, because the enemy^H341 hath prevailed^H1396. 17Zion^H6726 spreadeth forth^H6566 her hands^H3027; there is none to comfort^H5162 her; Jehovah^H3068 hath commanded^H6680 concerning Jacob^H3290, that they that are round about^H5439 him should be his adversaries^H6862: Jerusalem^H3389 is among them as an unclean^H5079 thing. 18Jehovah^H3068 is righteous^H6662; for I have rebelled^H4784 against his commandment^H6310: Hear^H8085, I pray you, all ye peoples^H5971, and behold^H7200 my sorrow^H4341: My virgins^H1330 and my young men^H970 are gone^H1980 into captivity^H7628. 19I called^H7121 for my lovers^H157, but they deceived^H7411 me: My priests^H3548 and mine elders^H2205 gave up the ghost^H1478 in the city^H5892, While they sought^H1245 them food^H400 to refresh^H7725 their souls^H5315. 20Behold^H7200, O Jehovah^H3068; for I am in distress^H6887; my heart^H4578 is troubled^H2560; My heart^H3820 is turned^H2015 within^H7130 me; for I have grievously^H4784 rebelled^H4784: Abroad^H2351 the sword^H2719 bereaveth^H7921, at home^H1004 there is as death^H4194. 21They have heard^H8085 that I sigh^H584; there is none to comfort^H5162 me; all mine enemies^H341 have heard^H8085 of my trouble^H7451; they are glad^H7797 that thou hast done^H6213 it: Thou wilt bring^H935 the day^H3117 that thou hast proclaimed^H7121, and they shall be like^H3644 unto me. 22Let all their wickedness^H7451 come^H935 before^H6440 thee; And do^H5953 unto them, as thou hast done^H5953 unto me for all my transgressions^H6588: For my sighs^H585 are many^H7227, and my heart^H3820 is faint^H1742.
