Lamentations 1:6-8

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁶ All her splendor^(A) has vanished
from Daughter Zion.^(B)
Her leaders are like stags
that find no pasture;
they walk away exhausted
before the hunter.^(C)

⁷ During the days of her affliction and homelessness^(D)
Jerusalem remembers all her precious belongings
that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into the adversary’s hand,
she had no one to help.
The adversaries looked at her,
laughing over her downfall.

⁸ Jerusalem has sinned grievously;
therefore, she has become an object of scorn.^[a]
All who honored her now despise her,
for they have seen her nakedness.
She herself groans and turns away.
