Lamentations 1:18-20
New King James Version
Lamentations 1:18-20
New King James Version
18 “The Lord is (A)righteous,
For I (B)rebelled against His [a]commandment.
Hear now, all peoples,
And behold my sorrow;
My virgins and my young men
Have gone into captivity.
19 “I called for my lovers,
But they deceived me;
My priests and my elders
Breathed their last in the city,
While they sought food
To restore their life.
20 “See, O Lord, that I am in distress;
My (C)soul[b] is troubled;
My heart is overturned within me,
For I have been very rebellious.
(D)Outside the sword bereaves,
At home it is like death.
