Lamentations 2:15-16
New American Standard Bible 1995
15 All who pass along the way
(A)Clap their hands in derision at you;
They (B)hiss and shake their heads
At the daughter of Jerusalem,
“Is this the city of which they said,
‘(C)The perfection of beauty,
(D)A joy to all the earth’?”
16 All (E)your enemies
Have opened their mouths wide against you;
They hiss and (F)gnash their teeth.
They say, “We have (G)swallowed her up!
Surely this is the (H)day for which we waited;
We have reached it, we have seen it.”
