Lamentations 4:5-7
Legacy Standard Bible
He
5 Those who ate (A)delicacies
Are desolate in the streets;
Those [a]reared in crimson
Embrace ash pits.
Vav
6 So the [b]iniquity of the daughter of my people
Is greater than the [c](B)sin of Sodom,
Which was (C)overthrown as in a moment,
And no hands [d]whirled toward her.
Zayin
7 Her [e]Nazirites were (D)purer than snow;
They were whiter than milk;
They were more ruddy in [f]body than corals,
Their polishing was like [g](E)lapis lazuli.

Lamentations 4:5-7
New International Version
5 Those who once ate delicacies
are destitute in the streets.
Those brought up in royal purple(A)
now lie on ash heaps.(B)
6 The punishment of my people
is greater than that of Sodom,(C)
which was overthrown in a moment
without a hand turned to help her.
7 Their princes were brighter than snow
and whiter than milk,
their bodies more ruddy than rubies,
their appearance like lapis lazuli.
