Lamentations 1:10-11

Expanded Bible

¹⁰ The ·enemy [foe] ·reached out and took [spread his hands on]
    all her ·precious [desired; coveted] things.
She even saw ·foreigners [nations]
    enter her ·Temple [^Lholy place; Ps. 74:4–8].
·The Lord had commanded foreigners [^L…those you commanded]
    never to enter the meeting place of ·his [^Lyour] people.

¹¹ All of ·Jerusalem’s [^Lits] people groan,
    ·looking for [seeking] bread.
They ·are trading [^Lgive] their ·precious [desired; coveted] things for food
    so they can stay alive.
The city says, “Look, Lord, and see.
    I am ·hated [despised].”
