Lamentations 2:11-22

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>_.
Behold
<07200> (8798)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
and consider
<05027> (8685)
to whom thou hast done
<05953> (8782)
this
<03541>_.
Shall the women
<0802>
eat
<0398> (8799)
their fruit
<06529>_,
[and] children
<05768>
of a span long
<02949>_?
shall the priest
<03548>
and the prophet
<05030>
be slain
<02026> (8735)
in the sanctuary
<04720>
of the Lord
<0136>_?
{of a span...: or, swaddled with their hands?}
The young
<05288>
and the old
<02205>
lie
<07901> (8804)
on the ground
<0776>
in the streets
<02351>_:
my virgins
<01330>
and my young men
<0970>
are fallen
<05307> (8804)
by the sword
<02719>_;
thou hast slain
<02026> (8804)
[them] in the day
<03117>
of thine anger
<0639>_;
thou hast killed
<02873> (8804)_,
[and] not pitied
<02550> (8804)_.
Thou hast called
<07121> (8799)
as in a solemn
<04150>
day
<03117>
my terrors
<04032>
round about
<05439>_,
so that in the day
<03117>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
anger
<0639>
none escaped
<06412>
nor remained
<08300>_:
those that I have swaddled
<02946> (8765)
and brought up
<07235> (8765)
hath mine enemy
<0341> (8802)
consumed
<03615> (8765)_.
