Lamentations 1:6-8
New Century Version
6 The beauty of Jerusalem
has gone away.
Her rulers are like deer
that cannot find food.
They are weak
and run from the hunters.
7 Jerusalem is suffering and homeless.
She remembers all the good things
from the past.
But her people were defeated by the enemy,
and there was no one to help her.
When her enemies saw her,
they laughed to see her ruined.
8 Jerusalem sinned terribly,
so she has become unclean.
Those who honored her now hate her,
because they have seen her nakedness.
She groans
and turns away.
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.
