Lamentations 1:18-20

Lexham English Bible

¹⁸ Yahweh is righteous;
    I have rebelled against his word.^[a]
Please hear, all the nations,
    And see my pain;
My young women^[b] and young men
    went into captivity.
¹⁹ I have called to my lovers,
    they themselves deceived me;
my priests and elders perished in the city
    when they sought food for themselves
        to revive their life.^[c]
20 See, O Yahweh, that I am in distress;^[d]
    my stomach^[e] is in torment,
my heart has turned inside me
    because I have certainly rebelled.
From outside a sword brings bereavement,
    inside the house it is like death.
