Lamentations 4:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ ·My people have been punished
    more than Sodom was [^LThe iniquity/or punishment of the daughter of my people is greater than the sin/or punishment of Sodom].
·Sodom [^L…which] was ·destroyed [^Loverturned] suddenly,
    and no hands ·reached out to help her [or were wrung; Gen. 19; Deut. 29:23; Is. 1:9–10; Jer. 23:14; Ezek. 16:46–56; Matt. 10:15; Jude 7; Rev. 11:8].

⁷ ·Our [or Her] princes were purer than snow,
    and whiter than milk.
Their bodies were redder than ·rubies [or coral];
    they looked like ·sapphires [lapis lazuli].

⁸ But now ·they [^Ltheir faces] are blacker than coal,
    and no one recognizes them in the streets.
Their skin ·hangs [or shrivels] on their bones;
    it is as dry as wood.
