¹³⁶ My eyes ^[a]shed ^(A)streams of water,
Because they ^(B)do not keep Your Law.

9 ^[a](A)Oh, that my head were waters
And my eyes a fountain of tears,
That I might weep day and night
For those slain of the ^(B)daughter of my people!

² She ^(A)weeps bitterly in the night,
And her tears are on her cheeks;
She has no one to comfort her
Among all her ^(B)lovers.
All her friends have ^(C)dealt treacherously with her;
They have become her enemies.

¹⁶ For these things I ^(A)weep;
^[a]My eyes run down with water;
Because far from me is a ^(B)comforter,
One to restore my soul.
My children are desolate
Because the enemy has prevailed.”
