Lamentations 1:7
New King James Version
7 In the days of her affliction and roaming,
Jerusalem (A)remembers all her pleasant things
That she had in the days of old.
When her people fell into the hand of the enemy,
With no one to help her,
The adversaries saw her
And mocked at her [a]downfall.

Psalm 73:12-19
New King James Version
12 Behold, these are the ungodly,
Who are always at ease;
They increase in riches.
13 Surely I have [a]cleansed my heart in (A)vain,
And washed my hands in innocence.
14 For all day long I have been plagued,
And chastened every morning.
15 If I had said, “I will speak thus,”
Behold, I would have been untrue to the generation of Your children.
16 When I thought how to understand this,
It was [b]too painful for me—
17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God;
Then I understood their (B)end.
18 Surely (C)You set them in slippery places;
You cast them down to destruction.
19 Oh, how they are brought to desolation, as in a moment!
They are utterly consumed with terrors.
