Lamentations 4:15-17
New American Standard Bible 1995
15 “Depart! (A)Unclean!” [a]they cried of themselves.
“Depart, depart, do not touch!”
So they (B)fled and wandered;
Men among the nations said,
“They shall not continue to dwell with us.”
16 The presence of the Lord has scattered them,
He will not continue to regard them;
They did not [b](C)honor the priests,
They did not favor the elders.
17 Yet our eyes failed,
Looking for [c]help was (D)useless;
In our watching we have watched
For a (E)nation that could not save.
