Lamentations 4:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 For the iniquity of the daughter of my people is become greater than the sin of Sodom, that was (A)destroyed as in a moment, and [a]none pitched camps against her.
7 Her (B)Nazirites were purer than the snow, and whiter than the milk: they were more ruddy in body, than the red precious stones: they were like polished sapphire.
8 Now their [b]visage is blacker than a coal: they cannot know them in the streets: their skin cleaveth to their bones: it is withered like a stock.
