² “Judah mourns
And ^(A)her gates languish;
They sit on the ground ^(B)in mourning,
And the ^(C)cry of Jerusalem has ascended.

⁴ The roads ^[a]of Zion are in mourning
Because ^(A)no one comes to the appointed feasts.
All her gates are ^(B)desolate;
Her priests are groaning,
Her ^(C)virgins are afflicted,
And she herself ^[b]is ^(D)bitter.
