Lamentations 4:16-18
New King James Version
Lamentations 4:16-18
New King James Version
16 The [a]face of the Lord scattered them;
He no longer regards them.
(A)The people do not respect the priests
Nor show favor to the elders.
17 Still (B)our eyes failed us,
Watching vainly for our help;
In our watching we watched
For a nation that could not save us.
18 (C)They [b]tracked our steps
So that we could not walk in our streets.
(D)Our end was near;
Our days were over,
For our end had come.
