⁷ In the days of her affliction and wandering
    Jerusalem remembers all the treasures
    that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into enemy hands,
    there was no one to help her.^(A)
Her enemies looked at her
    and laughed^(B) at her destruction.

¹⁹ Arise, cry out in the night,
    as the watches of the night begin;
pour out your heart^(A) like water
    in the presence of the Lord.^(B)
Lift up your hands^(C) to him
    for the lives of your children,
who faint^(D) from hunger
    at every street corner.
