Lamentations 4:5-7
Young's Literal Translation
5 Those eating of dainties have been desolate in out-places, Those supported on scarlet have embraced dunghills.
6 And greater is the iniquity of the daughter of my people, Than the sin of Sodom, That was overturned as [in] a moment, And no hands were stayed on her.
7 Purer were her Nazarites than snow, Whiter than milk, ruddier of body than rubies, Of sapphire their form.

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.
