Lamentations 4:3-5
Legacy Standard Bible

Gimel

3 Even (A)jackals offer the breast;
They nurse their young;
But the daughter of my people has become (B)cruel
Like (C)ostriches in the wilderness.

Daleth

4 The (D)tongue of the nursing baby cleaves
To the roof of its mouth because of (E)thirst;
The infants (F)ask for bread,
But no one breaks it for them.

He

5 Those who ate (G)delicacies
Are desolate in the streets;
Those [a]reared in crimson
Embrace ash pits.
