Lamentations 1:15-17

English Standard Version

¹⁵ “The Lord rejected
    all my mighty men in my midst;
he summoned an assembly against me
    to crush my young men;
^(A)the Lord has trodden as in a winepress
    the virgin daughter of Judah.

¹⁶ “For these things ^(B)I weep;
    my eyes flow with tears;
for ^(C)a comforter is far from me,
    one to ^(D)revive my spirit;
my children are desolate,
    for the enemy has prevailed.”

^17 (E)Zion stretches out her hands,
    but ^(F)there is none to comfort her;
the Lord has commanded against Jacob
    that his neighbors should be his foes;
Jerusalem has become
    a filthy thing among them.
