Lamentations 2:12-14
New King James Version
Lamentations 2:12-14
New King James Version
12 They say to their mothers,
“Where is grain and wine?”
As they swoon like the wounded
In the streets of the city,
As their life is poured out
In their mothers’ bosom.
13 How shall I (A)console[a] you?
To what shall I liken you,
O daughter of Jerusalem?
What shall I compare with you, that I may comfort you,
O virgin daughter of Zion?
For your ruin is spread wide as the sea;
Who can heal you?
14 Your (B)prophets have seen for you
False and deceptive visions;
They have not (C)uncovered your iniquity,
To bring back your captives,
But have envisioned for you false (D)prophecies and delusions.
