Lamentations 1:7-9

Legacy Standard Bible

⁷ In the days of her affliction and homelessness
^(A)Jerusalem remembers all her precious things
That were from the days of old,
When her people fell into the hand of the adversary
And ^(B)no one helped her.
The adversaries saw her;
They ^(C)laughed at her ^[a]ruin.

⁸ Jerusalem sinned ^(D)greatly;
Therefore ^(E)she has become an impure thing.
All who honored her despise her
Because they have seen her nakedness;
Even ^(F)she herself sighs and turns away.

⁹ Her ^(G)uncleanness was in her skirts;
She did not remember her ^(H)future.
Therefore she has ^(I)gone down astonishingly;
^(J)She has no comforter.
“^(K)See, O Yahweh, my affliction,
For the enemy has ^(L)magnified himself!”
