Lamentations 1:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 “The Lord is in the right;
I had defied his command.
Listen, all you peoples,
and see my pain:
My young women and young men
have gone into captivity.(A)
19 I cried out to my lovers,
but they failed me.(B)
My priests and my elders
perished in the city;
How desperately they searched for food,
to save their lives!
20 Look, O Lord, at the anguish I suffer!
My stomach churns,
And my heart recoils within me:
How bitter I am!
Outside the sword bereaves—
indoors, there is death.(C)
Lamentations 1:18-20
New International Version
18 “The Lord is righteous,(A)
yet I rebelled(B) against his command.
Listen, all you peoples;
look on my suffering.(C)
My young men and young women
have gone into exile.(D)
