Lamentations 1:7-9
American Standard Version
7 Jerusalem remembereth in the days of her affliction and of her [a]miseries all her pleasant things that were from the days of old:
When her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and none did help her,
The adversaries saw her, they did mock at her [b]desolations.
8 Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore she [c]is become as an unclean thing;
All that honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness:
Yea, she sigheth, and turneth backward.
9 Her filthiness was in her skirts; she remembered not her latter end;
Therefore is she come down wonderfully; she hath no comforter:
Behold, O Jehovah, my affliction; for the enemy hath magnified himself.

Lamentations 1:7-9
New International Version
7 In the days of her affliction and wandering
Jerusalem remembers all the treasures
that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into enemy hands,
there was no one to help her.(A)
Her enemies looked at her
and laughed(B) at her destruction.
