⁶ Fled from cherished^[a] Zion
    are all that were her splendor.
Her princes have become like deer
    that cannot find their feeding grounds.
They flee with strength exhausted
    from their pursuers.

⁷ Jerusalem remembers^[b]
    her time of affliction and misery;
all her valued belongings^[c]
    of days gone by,
when her people fell into enemy hands,
    with no one to help her,
and her enemies stared at her,
    mocking her downfall.

⁸ Jerusalem sinned greatly,
    and she became unclean.^[d]
All who honored her now despise her,
    because they saw her naked.
She herself groans
    and turns her face away.
