Lamentations 2:20-22 - Zion Speaks Out: The Lord Destroyed Me
20 ר Resh
who You have done this to.

the infants they have nurtured?
Should priests and prophets
be killed in the Lord’s sanctuary?
21 שׁ Shin
are lying on the ground in the streets.
My young men and women
have fallen by the sword.

22 ת Tav
as if for an appointed festival day;
on the day of the Lord’s anger
no one escaped or survived.
My enemy has destroyed
those I nurtured
