Lamentations 4:16-18

21st Century King James Version

¹⁶ The anger of the Lord hath divided them; He will no more regard them; they respected not the persons of the priests, they favored not the elders.

¹⁷ As for us, our eyes as yet failed for our vain help: in our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save us.

¹⁸ They hunt our steps, that we cannot go in our streets; our end is near, our days are fulfilled, for our end has come.
