Lamentations 1:4-6

Christian Standard Bible

⁴ The roads to Zion^(A) mourn,
for no one comes to the appointed festivals.^(B)
All her gates are deserted;
her priests groan,
her young women grieve,
and she herself is bitter.

⁵ Her adversaries have become her masters;^(C)
her enemies are at ease,^(D)
for the Lord has made her suffer
because of her many transgressions.
Her children have gone away
as captives before the adversary.

⁶ All the splendor^(E) has vanished
from Daughter Zion.^(F)
Her leaders are like stags
that find no pasture;
they stumble away exhausted
before the hunter.^(G)
