Lamentations 1:10-12
International Standard Version
10 The adversary seized in his hands
everything she valued.
She watched the nations[a]
enter her sanctuary;
those you forbade to enter
your place of meeting.
11 All her people groaned
as they searched for food.
They traded their valuables in order to eat,
to keep themselves alive.[b]
Look, Lord, and see
how I have become dishonored.
12 May it not befall you,[c]
all who pass along the road!
Look and see:
Is there any grief
like my grief
dealt out to me,
by which the Lord afflicted me
in the time of his fierce wrath?
