Lamentations 1:20

The Desolate City

¹⁹ Koph I called unto my lovers, but they have deceived me; my priests and my elders in the city perished seeking food to maintain their lives. ²⁰ “See, O Lord, for I am in distress;
My spirit is greatly troubled;
My heart is overturned within me,
For I have been very rebellious.
In the street the sword slays;
In the house it is like death.
²¹ Schin They have heard that I sigh; and there is no comforter for me; all my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that thou hast done it. Thou hast brought the day that thou hast spoken of, but they shall be like unto me.

In Me

Soul is Troubled

Bowels Are Troubled

Heart Is Troubled
