Lamentations 1:10-11

New American Standard Bible

¹⁰The adversary has stretched out his hand
Over all her precious things,
For she has seen the ^(A)nations enter her sanctuary,
The ones whom You commanded
That they were ^(B)not to enter Your congregation.
¹¹All her people groan, ^(C)seeking bread;
They have given their treasures for food
To ^(D)restore their ^[a]lives.
“See, Lord, and look,
For I am ^(E)despised.”
