Lamentations 1:7-9
Names of God Bible
7 “Now, during its suffering and oppression,
Jerusalem remembers all the treasures it had from ancient times,
when its people fell into the power of their enemies
with no one to help them.
Their opponents looked on, and they laughed at Jerusalem’s downfall.
8 Jerusalem has sinned so much that it has become a filthy thing.
Everyone who used to honor it now despises it.
They’ve seen it naked.
Jerusalem groans and turns away.
9 Jerusalem’s own filth covers its clothes.
It gave no thought to its future.
Its downfall was shocking.
No one offers it comfort.
‘O Yahweh, look at my suffering,
because my enemies have triumphed.’
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.
