Lamentations 1:15-17

New American Standard Bible

¹⁵ The ^(A)Lord has thrown away all my strong men
In my midst;
He has called an appointed ^[a]time against me
To crush my ^(B)young men;
The Lord has ^(C)trodden as in a wine press
The virgin daughter of Judah.
¹⁶ For these things I ^(D)weep;
^[b]My eyes run down with water;
Because far from me is a ^(E)comforter,
One to restore my soul.
My children are desolate
Because the enemy has prevailed.”
¹⁷ Zion ^(F)stretches out with her hands;
There is no one to comfort her;
The Lord has ^(G)commanded regarding Jacob
That those around him become his adversaries;
^(H)Jerusalem has become a filthy thing among them.
