How is the gold 2091 become dim! 6004-93 [how] is the most 2896 fine gold 3800 changed! 8132-4 the stones 68 of the sanctuary 6944 are poured out 8210-101 in the top 7218 of every street. 2351 |
| 2 |
The precious 3368 sons 1121 of Zion, 6726 comparable 5537-30 to fine gold, 6337 how are they esteemed 2803-8 as earthen 2789 pitchers, 5035 the work 4639 of the hands 3027 of the potter! 3335-6 |
| 3 |
Even the sea monsters 8577 draw out 2502-1 the breast, 7699 they give suck 3243-52 to their young ones: 1484 the daughter 1323 of my people 5971 [is become] cruel, 393 like the ostriches 3283 in the wilderness. 4057 |
| 4 |
The tongue 3956 of the sucking child 3243-6 cleaveth 1692-1 to the roof of his mouth 2441 for thirst: 6772 the young children 5768 ask 7592-1 bread, 3899 [and] no man breaketh 6566-6 [it] unto them. |
| 5 |
They that did feed 398-6 delicately 4574 are desolate 8074-8 in the streets: 2351 they that were brought up 539-7 in scarlet 8438 embrace 2263-14 dunghills. 830 |
| 6 |
For the punishment of the iniquity 5771 of the daughter 1323 of my people 5971 is greater 1431-4 than the punishment 2403 of the sin of Sodom, 5467 that was overthrown 2015-7 as in a moment, 7281 and no hands 3027 stayed 2342-1 on her. |
| 7 |
Her Nazarites 5139 were purer 2141-1 than snow, 7950 they were whiter 6705-1 than milk, 2461 they were more ruddy 119-1 in body 6106 than rubies, 6443 their polishing 1508 [was] of sapphire: 5601 |
| 8 |
Their visage 8389 is blacker 2821-1 than a coal; 7815 they are not known 5234-8 in the streets: 2351 their skin 5785 cleaveth 6821-1 to their bones; 6106 it is withered, 3001-1 it is become like a stick. 6086 |
| 9 |
[They that be] slain 2491 with the sword 2719 are better 2896 than [they that be] slain 2491 with hunger: 7458 for these 1992 pine away, 2100-4 stricken through 1856-30 for [want of] the fruits 8570 of the field. 7704 |
| 10 |
The hands 3027 of the pitiful 7362 women 802 have sodden 1310-14 their own children: 3206 they were their meat 1262-15 in the destruction 7667 of the daughter 1323 of my people. 5971 |
| 11 |
The LORD 3068 hath accomplished 3615-14 his fury; 2534 he hath poured out 8210-1 his fierce 2740 anger, 639 and hath kindled 3341-55 a fire 784 in Zion, 6726 and it hath devoured 398-4 the foundations 3247 thereof. |
| 12 |
The kings 4428 of the earth, 776 and all the inhabitants 3427-6 of the world, 8398 would not have believed 539-52 that the adversary 6862 and the enemy 341-6 should have entered 935-4 into the gates 8179 of Jerusalem. 3389 |
| 13 |
For the sins 2403 of her prophets, 5030 [and] the iniquities 5771 of her priests, 3548 that have shed 8210-6 the blood 1818 of the just 6662 in the midst 7130 of her, |
| 14 |
They have wandered 5128-1 [as] blind 5787 [men] in the streets, 2351 they have polluted 1351-8 themselves with blood, 1818 so that men could 3201-4 not 3808 touch 5060-4 their garments. 3830 |
| 15 |
They cried 7121-1 unto them, Depart 5493-3 ye; [it is] unclean; 2931 depart, 5493-3 depart, 5493-3 touch 5060-4 not: when they fled away 5132-1 and wandered, 5128-1 they said 559-1 among the heathen, 1471 They shall no more 3254-55 sojourn 1481-2 [there]. |
| 16 |
The anger 6440 of the LORD 3068 hath divided 2505-14 them; he will no more 3254-55 regard 5027-53 them: they respected 5375-1 not the persons 6440 of the priests, 3548 they favoured 2603-1 not the elders. 2205 |
| 17 |
As for us, our eyes 5869 as yet failed 3615-4 for our vain 1892 help: 5833 in our watching 6836 we have watched 6822-14 for a nation 1471 [that] could not save 3467-55 [us]. |
| 18 |
They hunt 6679-1 our steps, 6806 that we cannot go 3212-2 in our streets: 7339 our end 7093 is near, 7126-1 our days 3117 are fulfilled; 4390-1 for our end 7093 is come. 935-1 |
| 19 |
Our persecutors 7291-6 are swifter 7031 than the eagles 5404 of the heaven: 8064 they pursued 1814-1 us upon the mountains, 2022 they laid wait 693-1 for us in the wilderness. 4057 |
| 20 |
The breath 7307 of our nostrils, 639 the anointed 4899 of the LORD, 3068 was taken 3920-8 in their pits, 7825 of whom we said, 559-1 Under his shadow 6738 we shall live 2421-4 among the heathen. 1471 |
| 21 |
Rejoice 7797-3 and be glad, 8055-3 O daughter 1323 of Edom, 123 that dwellest 3427-6 in the land 776 of Uz; 5780 the cup 3563 also shall pass 5674-4 through unto thee: thou shalt be drunken, 7937-4 and shalt make thyself naked. 6168-101 |
| 22 |
The punishment of thine iniquity 5771 is accomplished, 8552-1 O daughter 1323 of Zion; 6726 he will no more 3254-55 carry thee away into captivity: 1540-53 he will visit 6485-1 thine iniquity, 5771 O daughter 1323 of Edom; 123 he will discover 1540-14 thy sins. 2403 |
