Lamentations 1:12-14

Expanded Bible

¹² Jerusalem says, “You who pass by on the road ·don’t seem to care [is it nothing to you…?; ^LNo, to you].
    Come, look at me and see:
Is there any ·pain [sorrow] like ·mine [^Lmy pain/sorrow]?
    ·Is there any pain like that he has caused me […which has come upon me]?
The Lord has ·punished [afflicted; tormented] me
    on the day of his great anger.

¹³ “He sent fire from above
    that went ·down [deep] into my bones.
He ·stretched [spread] out a net for my feet
    and turned me back.
He made me so ·sad and lonely [desolate]
    that I am ·weak [faint; sick] all day.

¹⁴ “He ·has noticed my sins [or bound my transgressions into a yoke];
    they are ·tied together [intertwined] by his hands;
they hang around my neck.
    ·He has turned my strength into weakness [^LMy strength falters].
The Lord has handed me over
    to those who ·are stronger than I [^LI cannot stand against].
