Lamentations 4:7-9
Good News Translation
7 Our princes[a] were undefiled and pure as snow,
vigorous and strong, glowing with health.
8 Now they lie unknown in the streets, their faces blackened in death;
their skin, dry as wood, has shriveled on their bones.
9 Those who died in the war were better off than those who died later,
who starved slowly to death, with no food to keep them alive.
Footnotes
- Lamentations 4:7 princes; or Nazirites.
