耶利米哀歌 1:1-3
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
淒慘的耶路撒冷
1 從前人煙稠密的城，
現在何其荒涼！
從前揚威萬邦的強國，
現在竟像寡婦一樣。
從前在諸省做公主的，
現在卻淪為奴婢。
2 她在夜間痛哭，淚流滿面。
情人中沒有一個前來安慰。
朋友都出賣她，與她為敵。
3 猶大飽受苦難和奴役，
被擄往遠方，流落異邦，
找不到安居之所。
她在走投無路之際被追敵擒獲。
Lamentations 1:1-3
King James Version
Lamentations 1:1-3
King James Version
1 How doth the city sit solitary, that was full of people! how is she become as a widow! she that was great among the nations, and princess among the provinces, how is she become tributary!
2 She weepeth sore in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks: among all her lovers she hath none to comfort her: all her friends have dealt treacherously with her, they are become her enemies.
3 Judah is gone into captivity because of affliction, and because of great servitude: she dwelleth among the heathen, she findeth no rest: all her persecutors overtook her between the straits.

How Lonely Sits the City
1 (A)How lonely sits the city
that was full of people!
How like (B)a widow has she become,

2 (E)She weeps bitterly in the night,
with tears on her cheeks;
(F)among all her lovers
she has (G)none to comfort her;

in the midst of her distress.[b]
