Lamentations 1:20-22
International Children’s Bible
20 “Look at me, Lord. I am upset.
I am troubled.
My heart is troubled
because I have been so stubborn.
Out in the streets, the sword kills.
Inside the houses, death destroys.
21 “People have heard my groaning.
There is no one to comfort me.
All my enemies have heard of my trouble.
They are happy that you have done this to me.
Now bring that day you have announced.
Let my enemies be like me.
22 “Look at all their evil.
Do to them what you have done to me
because of all my sins.
I groan over and over again,
and I am afraid.”
Lamentations 1:20-22
New International Version
20 “See, Lord, how distressed(A) I am!
I am in torment(B) within,
and in my heart I am disturbed,(C)
for I have been most rebellious.(D)
Outside, the sword bereaves;
inside, there is only death.(E)
