| Lam 4:1 | How H349 is the gold H2091 become dim! H6004 how is the most H2896 fine gold H3800 changed! H8132 the stones H68 of the sanctuary H6944 are poured out H8210 in the top H7218 of every H3605 street.H2351 |
| Lam 4:2 | The precious H3368 sons H1121 of Zion, H6726 comparable H5537 to fine gold, H6337 how H349 are they esteemed H2803 as earthen H2789 pitchers, H5035 the work H4639 of the hands H3027 of the potter!H3335 |
| Lam 4:3 | Even H1571 the sea monsters H8565 draw out H2502 the breast, H7699 they give suck H3243 to their young ones: H1482 the daughter H1323 of my people H5971 is become cruel, H393 like the ostriches H3283 in the wilderness.H4057 |
| Lam 4:4 | The tongue H3956 of the sucking child H3243 cleaveth H1692 to H413 the roof of his mouth H2441 for thirst: H6772 the young children H5768 ask H7592 bread, H3899 and no man H369 breaketh H6566 it unto them. |
| Lam 4:5 | They that did feed H398 delicately H4574 are desolate H8074 in the streets: H2351 they that were brought up H539 in H5921 scarlet H8438 embrace H2263 dunghills.H830 |
| Lam 4:6 | For the punishment of the iniquity H5771 of the daughter H1323 of my people H5971 is greater H1431 than the punishment of the sin H4480 H2403 of Sodom, H5467 that was overthrown H2015 as in H3644 a moment, H7281 and no H3808 hands H3027 stayed H2342 on her. |
| Lam 4:7 | Her Nazarites H5139 were purer H2141 than snow, H4480 H7950 they were whiter H6705 than milk, H4480 H2461 they were more ruddy H119 in body H6106 than rubies, H4480 H6443 their polishing H1508 was of sapphire:H5601 |
| Lam 4:8 | Their visage H8389 is blacker H2821 than a coal; H4480 H7815 they are not H3808 known H5234 in the streets: H2351 their skin H5785 cleaveth H6821 to H5921 their bones; H6106 it is withered, H3001 it is become H1961 like a stick.H6086 |
| Lam 4:9 | They that be slain H2491 with the sword H2719 are H1961 better H2896 than they that be slain H4480 H2491 with hunger: H7458 for these H7945 H1992 pine away, H2100 stricken through H1856 for want of the fruits H4480 H8570 of the field.H7704 |
| Lam 4:10 | The hands H3027 of the pitiful H7362 women H802 have sodden H1310 their own children: H3206 they were H1961 their meat H1262 in the destruction H7667 of the daughter H1323 of my people.H5971 |
| Lam 4:11 | The LORD H3068 hath accomplished H3615 (H853) his fury; H2534 he hath poured out H8210 his fierce H2740 anger, H639 and hath kindled H3341 a fire H784 in Zion, H6726 and it hath devoured H398 the foundations H3247 thereof. |
| Lam 4:12 | The kings H4428 of the earth, H776 and all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of the world, H8398 would not H3808 have believed H539 that H3588 the adversary H6862 and the enemy H341 should have entered H935 into the gates H8179 of Jerusalem.H3389 |
| Lam 4:13 | For the sins H4480 H2403 of her prophets, H5030 and the iniquities H5771 of her priests, H3548 that have shed H8210 the blood H1818 of the just H6662 in the midst H7130 of her, |
| Lam 4:14 | They have wandered H5128 as blind H5787 men in the streets, H2351 they have polluted H1351 themselves with blood, H1818 so that men could H3201 not H3808 touch H5060 their garments.H3830 |
| Lam 4:15 | They cried H7121 unto them, Depart H5493 ye; it is unclean; H2931 depart, H5493 depart, H5493 touch H5060 not: H408 when H3588 they fled away H5132 and H1571 wandered, H5128 they said H559 among the heathen, H1471 They shall no H3808 more H3254 sojourn H1481 there. |
| Lam 4:16 | The anger H6440 of the LORD H3068 hath divided H2505 them; he will no H3808 more H3254 regard H5027 them: they respected H5375 not H3808 the persons H6440 of the priests, H3548 they favoured H2603 not H3808 the elders.H2205 |
| Lam 4:17 | As for us, our eyes H5869 as yet H5750 failed H3615 for H413 our vain H1892 help: H5833 in our watching H6836 we have watched H6822 for H413 a nation H1471 that could not H3808 save H3467 us. |
| Lam 4:18 | They hunt H6679 our steps, H6806 that we cannot go H4480 H1980 in our streets: H7339 our end H7093 is near, H7126 our days H3117 are fulfilled; H4390 for H3588 our end H7093 is come.H935 |
| Lam 4:19 | Our persecutors H7291 are H1961 swifter H7031 than the eagles H4480 H5404 of the heaven: H8064 they pursued H1814 us upon H5921 the mountains, H2022 they laid wait H693 for us in the wilderness.H4057 |
| Lam 4:20 | The breath H7307 of our nostrils, H639 the anointed H4899 of the LORD, H3068 was taken H3920 in their pits, H7825 of whom H834 we said, H559 Under his shadow H6738 we shall live H2421 among the heathen.H1471 |
| Lam 4:21 | Rejoice H7797 and be glad, H8055 O daughter H1323 of Edom, H123 that dwellest H3427 in the land H776 of Uz; H5780 the cup H3563 also H1571 shall pass through H5674 unto H5921 thee: thou shalt be drunken, H7937 and shalt make thyself naked.H6168 |
| Lam 4:22 | The punishment of thine iniquity H5771 is accomplished, H8552 O daughter H1323 of Zion; H6726 he will no H3808 more H3254 carry thee away into captivity: H1540 he will visit H6485 thine iniquity, H5771 O daughter H1323 of Edom; H123 he will discover H1540 H5921 thy sins.H2403 |
