Lamentations 2:19-20

New International Version

¹⁹ Arise, cry out in the night,
    as the watches of the night begin;
pour out your heart^(A) like water
    in the presence of the Lord.^(B)
Lift up your hands^(C) to him
    for the lives of your children,
who faint^(D) from hunger
    at every street corner.

²⁰ “Look, Lord, and consider:
    Whom have you ever treated like this?
Should women eat their offspring,^(E)
    the children they have cared for?^(F)
Should priest and prophet be killed^(G)
    in the sanctuary of the Lord?^(H)
