Lamentations 1:10-12

Names of God Bible

¹⁰ The enemies laid their hands on all of the city’s treasures.
    Jerusalem has seen the nations enter the holy place.
        ‘O Lord, they are the same people
            you have forbidden to enter your congregation.’
¹¹ All the people are groaning as they beg for bread.
    They trade their treasures for food to keep themselves alive.
        ‘O Yahweh, look and see how despised I am!’”

¹² “Doesn’t this affect all of you who pass by?
    Look and see if there’s any pain
    like the pain that Yahweh has caused me,
    like the pain that he has made me suffer on the day of his fierce anger.
