예루살렘의 슬픔
1 아, 슬프다! 예루살렘성이여, 한때는 사람들로 붐비더니 이제는 적막하게 되었 구나. 한때는 모든 나라 가운데서 [a]위세를 떨치던 자가 이제는 과부처럼 되었으며 본래 모든 나라 가운데서 여왕으로 군림하던 자가 이제는 조공을 바치는 노예가 되었구나.
2 밤새도록 슬픔에 흐느껴 눈물이 뺨을 적셔도 사랑하던 자 중에 그를 위로하는 자가 없고 친구도 다 그를 배반하여 원수가 되었네.
3 유다 사람들이 많은 고통과 시련을 겪고 포로로 잡혀갔으니 그들이 남의 땅에 살게 되어 평안이 없구나. 그들을 추격하는 자들이 그들을 궁지에 몰아 넣고 말았네.
4 시온의 거리가 처량하게 되었으니 명절이 되어도 그 곳을 찾는 자 없음이라. 모든 성문이 적적하게 되었고 제사장들은 탄식하며 처녀들은 근심하니 시온이 괴로운 처지에 빠졌구나.
5 대적이 그의 주인이 되고 원수가 번영을 누리게 되었으니 그의 죄가 많으므로 여호와께서 그를 슬픔 가운데 빠지게 하셨음이라. 그 어린 자녀들이 대적에게 멀리 사로잡혀갔구나.
6 시온의 영광이 다 떠나 버렸다. 그 지도자들은 꼴을 얻지 못해 기진 맥진하여 몰이꾼 앞에서 더 이상 달아날 수 없는 사슴처럼 되었네.
7 환난과 시련을 당한 예루살렘이 옛날의 즐거웠던 일들을 회상하는구나. 그 백성이 원수의 손아귀에 들어가도 그를 돕는 자가 없으니 그의 대적들이 그를 보고 그가 멸망당한 것을 비웃고 있네.
8 예루살렘이 크게 범죄하여 더럽혀지고 말았다. 전에 그를 높이던 자가 그의 벌거벗은 수치를 보고 그를 멸시하니 그가 탄식하며 자기 얼굴을 가리는구나.
9 더러운 것이 치마에 묻었으나 그가 자기 운명을 생각지 않았다. 그 멸망의 상태가 비참하여도 그를 위로할 자 없으니 그가 부르짖는구나. “여호와여, 원수가 의기 양양합니다. 나의 환난을 돌아보소서.”
10 여호와께서는 이방인이 성전에 들어가는 것을 금하셨으나 예루살렘은 원수들이 성전에 들어가서 보물을 모두 가져가는 것을 목격하였다.
11 예루살렘 주민이 먹을 것을 구하다가 탄식하며 목숨을 이으려고 보물로 양식을 바꾸었네. [b]그가 부르짖는 소리를 들어 보아라. “여호와여, 내가 가련하게 되었습니다. 나를 돌아보소서.”
12 “지나가는 모든 사람들아, 이것이 너희에게는 아무렇지도 않느냐? 내가 당하는 이런 고통이 어디 있는가? 이것은 여호와께서 분노하시던 날에 그가 나에게 주신 고통이란다.
13 “그가 하늘에서 불을 보내 내 뼈에까지 사무치게 하시고 내 길에 그물을 쳐서 나를 물러가게 하였으며 하루 종일 나를 내버려 두어 고통을 당하게 하였다.
14 “그가 내 죄악으로 멍에를 만들어 그것을 내 목에 메우고 내 힘을 빼셨으며 내가 당해 낼 수 없는 자의 손에 나를 넘기셨네.
15 “여호와께서 나의 모든 용사들을 짓밟으시고 큰 군대를 모아 나의 젊은이들을 부수시며 내 백성을 포도즙틀의 포도처럼 밟으셨다.
16 “그래서 내가 울지 않을 수 없으니 내 눈에서 눈물이 쏟아져 내리는구나. 나를 위로할 자가 내 곁에 없고 내 영혼을 소생시킬 자가 멀리 떠나고 말았네. 원수들이 나를 이겼으므로 내 자녀들이 처량하게 되었구나.
17 “내가 손을 내밀어도 나를 도와주는 자가 없다. 여호와께서 내 주변에 있는 자들을 내 대적이 되게 하셨으므로 그들이 나를 더러운 물건으로 취급하는구나.
18 “여호와는 의로우신 분이신데도 나는 그의 명령을 거역하였다. 너희 모든 백성들아, 내 말을 듣고 나의 고통을 보아라. 나의 처녀들과 청년들이 다 사로잡혀갔단다.
19 “내가 내 사랑하는 자들을 불렀으나 그들이 나를 배신했으며 나의 제사장들과 장로들은 목숨을 이으려고 먹을 것을 구하다가 성 안에서 쓰러지고 말았다.
20 “여호와여, 나의 고통을 보소서. 내가 주를 거역한 죄 때문에 이처럼 번민하며 괴로워하고 있습니다. 거리에는 칼이 사람을 기다리고 집 안에는 질병과 죽음이 있습니다.
21 “사람들이 나의 탄식 소리를 들었지만 나를 위로하는 자는 아무도 없습니다. 나의 모든 원수들이 내 고통에 대해서 들었으나 오히려 기뻐하고 있습니다. 주께서 선포하신 날이 이르게 하셔서 내 원수들도 나처럼 고난받게 하소서.
22 “여호와여, 저들의 죄악을 드러내시고 나의 모든 죄 때문에 나를 벌하신 것처럼 저들에게도 벌을 내리소서. 나에게 탄식할 일이 많고 내 마음이 나약해졌습니다.”

New International Version

New International Version
1 [a]How deserted(A) lies the city,
once so full of people!(B)
How like a widow(C) is she,
who once was great(D) among the nations!
She who was queen among the provinces
has now become a slave.(E)
2 Bitterly she weeps(F) at night,
tears are on her cheeks.
Among all her lovers(G)
there is no one to comfort her.
All her friends have betrayed(H) her;
they have become her enemies.(I)
3 After affliction and harsh labor,
Judah has gone into exile.(J)
She dwells among the nations;
she finds no resting place.(K)
All who pursue her have overtaken her(L)
in the midst of her distress.
4 The roads to Zion mourn,(M)
for no one comes to her appointed festivals.
All her gateways are desolate,(N)
her priests groan,
her young women grieve,
and she is in bitter anguish.(O)
5 Her foes have become her masters;
her enemies are at ease.
The Lord has brought her grief(P)
because of her many sins.(Q)
Her children have gone into exile,(R)
captive before the foe.(S)
6 All the splendor has departed
from Daughter Zion.(T)
Her princes are like deer
that find no pasture;
in weakness they have fled(U)
before the pursuer.
7 In the days of her affliction and wandering
Jerusalem remembers all the treasures
that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into enemy hands,
there was no one to help her.(V)
Her enemies looked at her
and laughed(W) at her destruction.
8 Jerusalem has sinned(X) greatly
and so has become unclean.(Y)
All who honored her despise her,
for they have all seen her naked;(Z)
she herself groans(AA)
and turns away.
9 Her filthiness clung to her skirts;
she did not consider her future.(AB)
Her fall(AC) was astounding;
there was none to comfort(AD) her.
“Look, Lord, on my affliction,(AE)
for the enemy has triumphed.”
10 The enemy laid hands
on all her treasures;(AF)
she saw pagan nations
enter her sanctuary(AG)—
those you had forbidden(AH)
to enter your assembly.
11 All her people groan(AI)
as they search for bread;(AJ)
they barter their treasures for food
to keep themselves alive.
“Look, Lord, and consider,
for I am despised.”
12 “Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by?(AK)
Look around and see.
Is any suffering like my suffering(AL)
that was inflicted on me,
that the Lord brought on me
in the day of his fierce anger?(AM)
13 “From on high he sent fire,
sent it down into my bones.(AN)
He spread a net(AO) for my feet
and turned me back.
He made me desolate,(AP)
faint(AQ) all the day long.
14 “My sins have been bound into a yoke[b];(AR)
by his hands they were woven together.
They have been hung on my neck,
and the Lord has sapped my strength.
He has given me into the hands(AS)
of those I cannot withstand.
15 “The Lord has rejected
all the warriors in my midst;(AT)
he has summoned an army(AU) against me
to[c] crush my young men.(AV)
In his winepress(AW) the Lord has trampled(AX)
Virgin Daughter(AY) Judah.
16 “This is why I weep
and my eyes overflow with tears.(AZ)
No one is near to comfort(BA) me,
no one to restore my spirit.
My children are destitute
because the enemy has prevailed.”(BB)
17 Zion stretches out her hands,(BC)
but there is no one to comfort her.
The Lord has decreed for Jacob
that his neighbors become his foes;(BD)
Jerusalem has become
an unclean(BE) thing(BF) among them.
18 “The Lord is righteous,(BG)
yet I rebelled(BH) against his command.
Listen, all you peoples;
look on my suffering.(BI)
My young men and young women
have gone into exile.(BJ)
19 “I called to my allies(BK)
but they betrayed me.
My priests and my elders
perished(BL) in the city
while they searched for food
to keep themselves alive.
20 “See, Lord, how distressed(BM) I am!
I am in torment(BN) within,
and in my heart I am disturbed,(BO)
for I have been most rebellious.(BP)
Outside, the sword bereaves;
inside, there is only death.(BQ)

King James Version
1 How doth the city sit solitary, that was full of people! how is she become as a widow! she that was great among the nations, and princess among the provinces, how is she become tributary!
2 She weepeth sore in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks: among all her lovers she hath none to comfort her: all her friends have dealt treacherously with her, they are become her enemies.
3 Judah is gone into captivity because of affliction, and because of great servitude: she dwelleth among the heathen, she findeth no rest: all her persecutors overtook her between the straits.
4 The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn feasts: all her gates are desolate: her priests sigh, her virgins are afflicted, and she is in bitterness.
5 Her adversaries are the chief, her enemies prosper; for the Lord hath afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her children are gone into captivity before the enemy.
6 And from the daughter of Zion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture, and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.
7 Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths.
8 Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore she is removed: all that honoured her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yea, she sigheth, and turneth backward.
9 Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembereth not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O Lord, behold my affliction: for the enemy hath magnified himself.
10 The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her pleasant things: for she hath seen that the heathen entered into her sanctuary, whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.
11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to relieve the soul: see, O Lord, and consider; for I am become vile.
12 Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow, which is done unto me, wherewith the Lord hath afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
13 From above hath he sent fire into my bones, and it prevaileth against them: he hath spread a net for my feet, he hath turned me back: he hath made me desolate and faint all the day.
14 The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand: they are wreathed, and come up upon my neck: he hath made my strength to fall, the Lord hath delivered me into their hands, from whom I am not able to rise up.
15 The Lord hath trodden under foot all my mighty men in the midst of me: he hath called an assembly against me to crush my young men: the Lord hath trodden the virgin, the daughter of Judah, as in a winepress.
16 For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water, because the comforter that should relieve my soul is far from me: my children are desolate, because the enemy prevailed.
17 Zion spreadeth forth her hands, and there is none to comfort her: the Lord hath commanded concerning Jacob, that his adversaries should be round about him: Jerusalem is as a menstruous woman among them.
18 The Lord is righteous; for I have rebelled against his commandment: hear, I pray you, all people, and behold my sorrow: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity.
19 I called for my lovers, but they deceived me: my priests and mine elders gave up the ghost in the city, while they sought their meat to relieve their souls.
20 Behold, O Lord; for I am in distress: my bowels are troubled; mine heart is turned within me; for I have grievously rebelled: abroad the sword bereaveth, at home there is as death.
21 They have heard that I sigh: there is none to comfort me: all mine enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that thou hast done it: thou wilt bring the day that thou hast called, and they shall be like unto me.
22 Let all their wickedness come before thee; and do unto them, as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions: for my sighs are many, and my heart is faint.
