Lamentations 4:3-5
New International Reader's Version
3 Even wild dogs
nurse their young pups.
But my people are as mean
as ostriches in the desert.
4 When the babies get thirsty,
their tongues stick to the roofs of their mouths.
When the children beg for bread,
no one gives them any.
5 Those who once ate fine food
are dying in the streets.
Those who wore royal clothes
are now lying on piles of trash.
Lamentations 4:3-5
New International Version
3 Even jackals offer their breasts
to nurse their young,
but my people have become heartless
like ostriches in the desert.(A)
