1 H ow doth the cityH5892 sitH3427 solitary,H910 that was fullH7227 of people!H5971 She is become as a widow,H490 that was greatH7227 among the nations!H1471 She that was a princessH8282 among the provincesH4082 is become tributary!H4522
2 She weepethH1058 soreH1058 in the night,H3915 and her tearsH1832 are on her cheeks;H3895 Among all her loversH157 she hath none to comfortH5162 her: All her friendsH7453 have dealt treacherouslyH898 with her; they are become her enemies.H341
3 JudahH3063 is gone into captivityH1540 because of affliction,H6040 and because of greatH7230 servitude;H5656 She dwellethH3427 among the nations,H1471 she findethH4672 no rest:H4494 All her persecutorsH7291 overtookH5381 her within the straits.H4712
4 The waysH1870 of ZionH6726 do mourn,H57 because none comeH935 to the solemn assembly;H4150 All her gatesH8179 are desolate,H8074 her priestsH3548 do sigh:H584 Her virginsH1330 are afflicted,H3013 and she herself is in bitterness.H4843
5 Her adversariesH6862 are become the head,H7218 her enemiesH341 prosper;H7951 For JehovahH3068 hath afflictedH3013 her for the multitudeH7230 of her transgressions:H6588 Her young childrenH5768 are goneH1980 into captivityH7628 beforeH6440 the adversary.H6862
6 And from the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726 all her majestyH1926 is departed:H3318 Her princesH8269 are become like hartsH354 that findH4672 no pasture,H4829 And they are goneH3212 without strengthH3581 beforeH6440 the pursuer.H7291
7 JerusalemH3389 rememberethH2142 in the daysH3117 of her afflictionH6040 and of her miseriesH4788 all her pleasant thingsH4262 that were from the daysH3117 of old:H6924 When her peopleH5971 fellH5307 into the handH3027 of the adversary,H6862 and none did helpH5826 her, The adversariesH6862 sawH7200 her, they did mockH7832 at her desolations.H4868
8 JerusalemH3389 hath grievouslyH2399 sinned;H2398 therefore she is becomeH5206 as an unclean thing; All that honoredH3513 her despiseH2107 her, because they have seenH7200 her nakedness:H6172 Yea, she sigheth,H584 and turnethH7725 backward.H268
9 Her filthinessH2932 was in her skirts;H7757 she rememberedH2142 not her latter end;H319 Therefore is she come downH3381 wonderfully;H6382 she hath no comforter:H5162 Behold,H7200 O Jehovah,H3068 my affliction;H6040 for the enemyH341 hath magnifiedH1431 himself.
10 The adversaryH6862 hath spread outH6566 his handH3027 upon all her pleasant things:H4261 For she hath seenH7200 that the nationsH1471 are enteredH935 into her sanctuary,H4720 Concerning whom thou didst commandH6680 that they should not enterH935 into thine assembly.H6951
11 All her peopleH5971 sigh,H584 they seekH1245 bread;H3899 They have givenH5414 their pleasant thingsH4261 for foodH400 to refreshH7725 the soul:H5315 See,H7200 O Jehovah,H3068 and behold;H5027 for I am become abject.H2151
12 Is it nothing to you, all ye that passH5674 by?H1870 Behold,H5027 and seeH7200 if there beH3426 any sorrowH4341 like unto my sorrow,H4341 which is broughtH5953 upon me, Wherewith JehovahH3068 hath afflictedH3013 [me] in the dayH3117 of his fierceH2740 anger.H639
13 From on highH4791 hath he sentH7971 fireH784 into my bones,H6106 and it prevailethH7287 against them; He hath spreadH6566 a netH7568 for my feet,H7272 he hath turnedH7725 me back:H268 He hath madeH5414 me desolateH8074 and faintH1739 all the day.H3117
14 The yokeH5923 of my transgressionsH6588 is boundH8244 by his hand;H3027 They are knitH8276 together, they are come upH5927 upon my neck;H6677 He hath made my strengthH3581 to fail:H3782 The LordH136 hath deliveredH5414 me into their hands,H3027 against whom I am not ableH3201 to stand.H6965
15 The LordH136 hath set at noughtH5541 all my mightyH47 men in the midstH7130 of me; He hath calledH7121 a solemn assemblyH4150 against me to crushH7665 my young men:H970 The LordH136 hath troddenH1869 as in a winepressH1660 the virginH1330 daughterH1323 of Judah.H3063
16 For these things I weep;H1058 mine eye,H5869 mine eyeH5869 runneth downH3381 with water;H4325 Because the comforterH5162 that should refreshH7725 my soulH5315 is farH7368 from me: My childrenH1121 are desolate,H8074 because the enemyH341 hath prevailed.H1396
17 ZionH6726 spreadeth forthH6566 her hands;H3027 there is none to comfortH5162 her; JehovahH3068 hath commandedH6680 concerning Jacob,H3290 that they that are round aboutH5439 him should be his adversaries:H6862 JerusalemH3389 is among them as an uncleanH5079 thing.
18 JehovahH3068 is righteous;H6662 for I have rebelledH4784 against his commandment:H6310 Hear,H8085 I pray you, all ye peoples,H5971 and beholdH7200 my sorrow:H4341 My virginsH1330 and my young menH970 are goneH1980 into captivity.H7628
19 I calledH7121 for my lovers,H157 [but] they deceivedH7411 me: My priestsH3548 and mine eldersH2205 gave up the ghostH1478 in the city,H5892 While they soughtH1245 them foodH400 to refreshH7725 their souls.H5315
20 Behold,H7200 O Jehovah;H3068 for I am in distress;H6887 my heartH4578 is troubled;H2560 My heartH3820 is turnedH2015 withinH7130 me; for I have grievouslyH4784 rebelled:H4784 AbroadH2351 the swordH2719 bereaveth,H7921 at homeH1004 there is as death.H4194
21 They have heardH8085 that I sigh;H584 there is none to comfortH5162 me; all mine enemiesH341 have heardH8085 of my trouble;H7451 they are gladH7797 that thou hast doneH6213 it: Thou wilt bringH935 the dayH3117 that thou hast proclaimed,H7121 and they shall be likeH3644 unto me.
22 Let all their wickednessH7451 comeH935 beforeH6440 thee; And doH5953 unto them, as thou hast doneH5953 unto me for all my transgressions:H6588 For my sighsH585 are many,H7227 and my heartH3820 is faint.H1742
