Lamentations 2:1-19

How hath the Lord
<0136>
covered
<05743> (0)
the daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>
with a cloud
<05743> (8686)
in his anger
<0639>_,
[and] cast down
<07993> (8689)
from heaven
<08064>
unto the earth
<0776>
the beauty
<08597>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and remembered
<02142> (8804)
not his footstool
<01916> <07272>
in the day
<03117>
of his anger
<0639>_!
The Lord
<0136>
hath swallowed up
<01104> (8765)
all the habitations
<04999>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and hath not pitied
<02550> (8804)_:
he hath thrown down
<02040> (8804)
in his wrath
<05678>
the strong holds
<04013>
of the daughter
<01323>
of Judah
<03063>_;
he hath brought [them] down
<05060> (8689)
to the ground
<0776>_:
he hath polluted
<02490> (8765)
the kingdom
<04467>
and the princes
<08269>
thereof. {brought...: Heb. made to touch}
He hath cut off
<01438> (8804)
in [his] fierce
<02750>
anger
<0639>
all the horn
<07161>
of Israel
<03478>_:
he hath drawn
<07725> (8689)
back
<0268>
his right hand
<03225>
from before
<06440>
the enemy
<0341> (8802)_,
and he burned
<01197> (8799)
against Jacob
<03290>
like a flaming
<03852>
fire
<0784>_,
[which] devoureth
<0398> (8804)
round about
<05439>_.
He hath bent
<01869> (8804)
his bow
<07198>
like an enemy
<0341> (8802)_:
he stood
<05324> (8737)
with his right hand
<03225>
as an adversary
<06862>_,
and slew
<02026> (8799)
all [that were] pleasant
<04261>
to the eye
<05869>
in the tabernacle
<0168>
of the daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>_:
he poured out
<08210> (8804)
his fury
<02534>
like fire
<0784>_.
{all...: Heb. all the desirable of the eye}
The Lord
<0136>
was as an enemy
<0341> (8802)_:
he hath swallowed up
<01104> (8765)
Israel
<03478>_,
he hath swallowed up
<01104> (8765)
all her palaces
<0759>_:
he hath destroyed
<07843> (8765)
his strong holds
<04013>_,
and hath increased
<07235> (8686)
in the daughter
<01323>
of Judah
<03063>
mourning
<08386>
and lamentation
<0592>_.
And he hath violently taken away
<02554> (8799)
his tabernacle
<07900>_,
as [if it were of] a garden
<01588>_:
he hath destroyed
<07843> (8765)
his places of the assembly
<04150>_:
the LORD
<03068>
hath caused the solemn feasts
<04150>
and sabbaths
<07676>
to be forgotten
<07911> (8765)
in Zion
<06726>_,
and hath despised
<05006> (8799)
in the indignation
<02195>
of his anger
<0639>
the king
<04428>
and the priest
<03548>_.
{tabernacle: or, hedge}
The Lord
<0136>
hath cast off
<02186> (8804)
his altar
<04196>_,
he hath abhorred
<05010> (8765)
his sanctuary
<04720>_,
he hath given up
<05462> (8689)
into the hand
<03027>
of the enemy
<0341> (8802)
the walls
<02346>
of her palaces
<0759>_;
they have made
<05414> (8804)
a noise
<06963>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
as in the day
<03117>
of a solemn feast
<04150>_.
{given up: Heb. shut up}
The LORD
<03068>
hath purposed
<02803> (8804)
to destroy
<07843> (8687)
the wall
<02346>
of the daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>_:
he hath stretched out
<05186> (8804)
a line
<06957>_,
he hath not withdrawn
<07725> (8689)
his hand
<03027>
from destroying
<01104> (8763)_:
therefore he made the rampart
<02426>
and the wall
<02346>
to lament
<056> (8686)_;
they languished
<0535> (8797)
together
<03162>_.
{destroying: Heb. swallowing up}
Her gates
<08179>
are sunk
<02883> (8804)
into the ground
<0776>_;
he hath destroyed
<06> (8765)
and broken
<07665> (8765)
her bars
<01280>_:
her king
<04428>
and her princes
<08269>
[are] among the Gentiles
<01471>_:
the law
<08451>
[is] no [more]; her prophets
<05030>
also find
<04672> (8804)
no vision
<02377>
from the LORD
<03068>_.
The elders
<02205>
of the daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>
sit
<03427> (8799)
upon the ground
<0776>_,
[and] keep silence
<01826> (8799)_:
they have cast up
<05927> (8689)
dust
<06083>
upon their heads
<07218>_;
they have girded
<02296> (8804)
themselves with sackcloth
<08242>_:
the virgins
<01330>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
hang down
<03381> (8689)
their heads
<07218>
to the ground
<0776>_.
Mine eyes
<05869>
do fail
<03615> (8804)
with tears
<01832>_,
my bowels
<04578>
are troubled
<02560> (8777)_,
my liver
<03516>
is poured
<08210> (8738)
upon the earth
<0776>_,
for the destruction
<07667>
of the daughter
<01323>
of my people
<05971>_;
because the children
<05768>
and the sucklings
<03243> (8802)
swoon
<05848> (8736)
in the streets
<07339>
of the city
<07151>_.
{swoon: or, faint}
They say
<0559> (8799)
to their mothers
<0517>_,
Where [is] corn
<01715>
and wine
<03196>_?
when they swooned
<05848> (8692)
as the wounded
<02491>
in the streets
<07339>
of the city
<05892>_,
when their soul
<05315>
was poured out
<08210> (8692)
into their mothers
<0517>_'
bosom
<02436>_.
What thing shall I take to witness
<05749> (8686) (8675) <05749> (8799)
for thee? what thing
<04100>
shall I liken
<01819> (8762)
to thee, O daughter
<01323>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_?
what shall I equal
<07737> (8686)
to thee, that I may comfort
<05162> (8762)
thee, O virgin
<01330>
daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>_?
for thy breach
<07667>
[is] great
<01419>
like the sea
<03220>_:
who can heal
<07495> (8799)
thee?
Thy prophets
<05030>
have seen
<02372> (8804)
vain
<07723>
and foolish things
<08602>
for thee: and they have not discovered
<01540> (8765)
thine iniquity
<05771>_,
to turn away
<07725> (8687)
thy captivity
<07622> (8675) <07622>_;
but have seen
<02372> (8799)
for thee false
<07723>
burdens
<04864>
and causes of banishment
<04065>_.
All that pass
<05674> (8802)
by clap
<05606> (8804)
[their] hands
<03709>
at thee
<01870>_;
they hiss
<08319> (8804)
and wag
<05128> (8686)
their head
<07218>
at the daughter
<01323>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
[saying, Is] this the city
<05892>
that [men] call
<0559> (8799)
The perfection
<03632>
of beauty
<03308>_,
The joy
<04885>
of the whole earth
<0776>_?
{by: Heb. by the way}
All thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
have opened
<06475> (8804)
their mouth
<06310>
against thee: they hiss
<08319> (8804)
and gnash
<02786> (8799)
the teeth
<08127>_:
they say
<0559> (8804)_,
We have swallowed [her] up
<01104> (8765)_:
certainly
<0389>
this [is] the day
<03117>
that we looked for
<06960> (8765)_;
we have found
<04672> (8804)_,
we have seen
<07200> (8804)
[it].
The LORD
<03068>
hath done
<06213> (8804)
[that] which he had devised
<02161> (8804)_;
he hath fulfilled
<01214> (8765)
his word
<0565>
that he had commanded
<06680> (8765)
in the days
<03117>
of old
<06924>_:
he hath thrown down
<02040> (8804)_,
and hath not pitied
<02550> (8804)_:
and he hath caused [thine] enemy
<0341> (8802)
to rejoice
<08055> (8762)
over thee, he hath set up
<07311> (8689)
the horn
<07161>
of thine adversaries
<06862>_.
Their heart
<03820>
cried
<06817> (8804)
unto the Lord
<0136>_,
O wall
<02346>
of the daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>_,
let tears
<01832>
run down
<03381> (8685)
like a river
<05158>
day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_:
give
<05414> (8799)
thyself no rest
<06314>_;
let not the apple
<01323>
of thine eye
<05869>
cease
<01826> (8799)_.
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
cry out
<07442> (8798)
in the night
<03915>_:
in the beginning
<07218>
of the watches
<0821>
pour out
<08210> (8798)
thine heart
<03820>
like water
<04325>
before
<05227>
the face
<06440>
of the Lord
<0136>_:
lift up
<05375> (8798)
thy hands
<03709>
toward him for the life
<05315>
of thy young children
<05768>_,
that faint
<05848> (8803)
for hunger
<07458>
in the top
<07218>
of every street
<02351>_.
