Lamentations 1:19-21
Good News Translation
19 “I called to my allies, but they refused to help me.
The priests and the leaders died in the city streets,
Looking for food to keep themselves alive.
20 “Look, O Lord, at my agony, at the anguish of my soul!
My heart is broken in sorrow for my sins.
There is murder in the streets; even indoors there is death.
21 “Listen[a] to my groans; there is no one to comfort me.
My enemies are glad that you brought disaster on me.
Bring[b] the day you promised; make my enemies suffer as I do.
