Lamentations 2:20-22

New International Version

²⁰ “Look, Lord, and consider:
    Whom have you ever treated like this?
Should women eat their offspring,^(A)
    the children they have cared for?^(B)
Should priest and prophet be killed^(C)
    in the sanctuary of the Lord?^(D)

²¹ “Young and old lie together
    in the dust of the streets;
my young men and young women
    have fallen by the sword.^(E)
You have slain them in the day of your anger;
    you have slaughtered them without pity.^(F)

²² “As you summon to a feast day,
    so you summoned against me terrors^(G) on every side.
In the day of the Lord’s anger
    no one escaped^(H) or survived;
those I cared for and reared^(I)
    my enemy has destroyed.”
