Lamentations 4:15-17
English Standard Version
15 “Away! (A)Unclean!” people cried at them.
“Away! Away! Do not touch!”
So they became fugitives and wanderers;
people said among the nations,
“They shall stay with us no longer.”
16 (B)The Lord himself[a] has scattered them;
he will regard them no more;
(C)no honor was shown to the priests,
(D)no favor to the elders.
17 (E)Our eyes failed, ever watching
(F)vainly for help;
in our watching we watched
for (G)a nation which could not save.
