Lamentations 1:10-14
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

10 Jod. The enemy hath put out his hand to all her desirable things: for she hath seen the Gentiles enter into her sanctuary, of whom thou gavest commandment that they should not enter into thy church.

11 Caph. All her people sigh, they seek bread: they have given all their precious things for food to relieve the soul: see, O Lord, and consider, for I am become vile.

12 Lamed. O all ye that pass by the way, attend, and see if there be any sorrow like to my sorrow: for he hath made a vintage of me, as the Lord spoke in the day of his fierce anger.

13 Mem. From above he hath sent fire into my bones, and hath chastised me: he hath spread a net for my feet, he hath turned me back: he hath made me desolate, wasted with sorrow all the day long.

14 Nun. The yoke of my iniquities hath watched: they are folded together in his hand, and put upon my neck: my strength is weakened: the Lord hath delivered me into a hand out of which I am not able to rise.

Lamentations 1:10-14
New International Version

10 The enemy laid hands
    on all her treasures;(A)
she saw pagan nations
    enter her sanctuary(B)—
those you had forbidden(C)
    to enter your assembly.

11 All her people groan(D)
    as they search for bread;(E)
they barter their treasures for food
    to keep themselves alive.
“Look, Lord, and consider,
    for I am despised.”

12 “Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by?(F)
    Look around and see.
Is any suffering like my suffering(G)
    that was inflicted on me,
that the Lord brought on me
    in the day of his fierce anger?(H)

13 “From on high he sent fire,
    sent it down into my bones.(I)
He spread a net(J) for my feet
    and turned me back.
He made me desolate,(K)
    faint(L) all the day long.

14 “My sins have been bound into a yoke[a];(M)
    by his hands they were woven together.
They have been hung on my neck,
    and the Lord has sapped my strength.
He has given me into the hands(N)
    of those I cannot withstand.
