Baruch 4:13-15

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹³ They had no regard for his statutes;
    they did not walk in the ways of God’s commandments,
    or tread the paths his righteousness showed them.
¹⁴ Let the neighbors of Zion come;
    remember the capture of my sons and daughters,
    which the Everlasting brought upon them.
¹⁵ For he brought a distant nation against them,
    a nation ruthless and of a strange language,
which had no respect for the aged
    and no pity for a child.
