Lamentations 4:6-8

English Standard Version Anglicised

^6 (A)For the chastisement^[a] of the daughter of my people has been greater
    than the punishment^[b] of Sodom,
^(B)which was overthrown in a moment,
    and no hands were wrung for her.^[c]
7 Her princes were purer than snow,
    whiter than milk;
their bodies were more ruddy than coral,
    the beauty of their form^[d] was like sapphire.^[e]
8 (C)Now their face is blacker than soot;
    they are not recognized in the streets;
their skin has shrivelled on their bones;
    it has become as dry as wood.
