Lamentations 4:6-8
Common English Bible
6 Greater was the punishment[a] of the daughter of my people than Sodom’s penalty,[b]
which was quickly overthrown without any hand-wringing.[c]
7 Her nazirites were purer than snow; they were more dazzling than milk.
Their limbs were redder than coral; their bodies were sapphire.
8 But their appearance grew darker than soot; they weren’t recognized in the streets.
Their skin shriveled on their bones; it became dry like wood.
