Lamentations 1:16-18
Modern English Version
16 For these things I weep;
my eyes flow with tears;
for the comforter, who should relieve my soul,
is far from me.
My children are desolate
for the enemy has prevailed.
17 Zion spreads out her hands,
but there is no one to comfort her;
the Lord has commanded against Jacob
that his neighbors should be his adversaries;
Jerusalem has become a filthy thing among them.
18 The Lord is in the right,
for I have rebelled against His commandment.
Hear now, all peoples,
and see my sorrow;
my virgins and my young men
have gone into captivity.
Lamentations 1:16-18
New International Version
16 “This is why I weep
and my eyes overflow with tears.(A)
No one is near to comfort(B) me,
no one to restore my spirit.
My children are destitute
because the enemy has prevailed.”(C)
