Lamentations 1:8-9

English Standard Version

^8 (A)Jerusalem sinned grievously;
    therefore she became filthy;
all who honored her despise her,
    ^(B)for they have seen her nakedness;
she herself ^(C)groans
    and turns her face away.

⁹ Her uncleanness was ^(D)in her skirts;
    ^(E)she took no thought of her future;^[a]
therefore her fall is terrible;
    ^(F)she has no comforter.
“O Lord, behold my affliction,
    for the enemy has ^(G)triumphed!”
