'My People' in the Bible

My eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.

I was a derision to all my people; and their song all the day.

My eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

Even the sea-monsters draw out the breast, they nurse their young ones: the daughter of my people is become cruel, like the ostriches in the wilderness.

For the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands stayed on her.

The hands of the pitiful women have boiled their own children: they were their food in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
