10 With their own hands compassionate women
have cooked their own children,(A)

when my people were destroyed.

that consumed her foundations.(F)

nor did any of the peoples of the world,
that enemies and foes could enter

10 The hands of the pitiful women have sodden their own children: they were their meat in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
11 The Lord hath accomplished his fury; he hath poured out his fierce anger, and hath kindled a fire in Zion, and it hath devoured the foundations thereof.
12 The kings of the earth, and all the inhabitants of the world, would not have believed that the adversary and the enemy should have entered into the gates of Jerusalem.
