Lamentations 1:6-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 From daughter Zion has gone
all her glory:
Her princes have become like rams
that find no pasture.
They have gone off exhausted
before their pursuers.
7 Jerusalem remembers
in days of wretched homelessness,
All the precious things she once had
in days gone by.
But when her people fell into the hands of the foe,
and she had no help,
Her foes looked on and laughed
at her collapse.
8 Jerusalem has sinned grievously,
therefore she has become a mockery;
Those who honored her now demean her,
for they saw her nakedness;
She herself groans out loud,
and turns away.(A)
Lamentations 1:6-8
New International Version
6 All the splendor has departed
from Daughter Zion.(A)
Her princes are like deer
that find no pasture;
in weakness they have fled(B)
before the pursuer.
