Lamentations 2:20-22
New Century Version
20 Jerusalem says: “Look, Lord, and see
to whom you have done this.
Women eat their own babies,
the children they have cared for.
Priests and prophets are killed
in the Temple of the Lord.
21 “People young and old
lie outside on the ground.
My young women and young men
have been killed by the sword.
You killed them on the day of your anger;
you killed them without mercy.
22 “You invited terrors to come against me on every side,
as if you were inviting them to a feast.
No one escaped or remained alive
on the day of the Lord’s anger.
My enemy has killed
those I cared for and brought up.”
Lamentations 2:20-22
New International Version
20 “Look, Lord, and consider:
Whom have you ever treated like this?
Should women eat their offspring,(A)
the children they have cared for?(B)
Should priest and prophet be killed(C)
in the sanctuary of the Lord?(D)
