Lamentations 4:11

Zion Is Punished

¹⁰ The hands of compassionate women
Boiled their own children;
They became food for them
Because of the destruction of the daughter of my people.
¹¹ The Lord has accomplished His wrath,
He has poured out His fierce anger;
And He has kindled a fire in Zion
Which has consumed its foundations.
¹² The kings of the earth did not believe,
Nor did any of the inhabitants of the world,
That the adversary and the enemy
Could enter the gates of Jerusalem.
