Lamentations 1:18

The Desolate City

¹⁷ Zion spreads forth her hands; none is comforting to me; Jehovah has commanded concerning Jacob that his enemies should be all around him; Jerusalem has become as an impure thing among them. ¹⁸ Jehovah is righteous, for I have rebelled against His command. I beseech you, all peoples, hear and behold my sorrow. My virgins and my young men went into exile. ¹⁹ I called for my lovers, but they deceived me; my priests and my elders expired in the city while they sought food for them to bring back their life.
