Lamentations 1:4-6
English Standard Version
4 The roads to Zion mourn,
for none come to (A)the festival;
(B)all her gates are desolate;
her priests (C)groan;
her virgins have been afflicted,[a]
and she herself suffers bitterly.
5 (D)Her foes have become the head;
her (E)enemies prosper,
because (F)the Lord has afflicted her
(G)for the multitude of her transgressions;
(H)her children have gone away,
captives before the foe.
6 From the daughter of Zion
all her majesty has departed.
Her princes have become like deer
(I)that find no pasture;
they fled without strength
before the pursuer.

19 (D)Now there was no blacksmith to be found throughout all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, “Lest the Hebrews make themselves swords or spears.” 20 But every one of the Israelites went down to the Philistines to sharpen his plowshare, his mattock, his axe, or his sickle,[a] 21 and the charge was two-thirds of a shekel[b] for the plowshares and for the mattocks, and a third of a shekel[c] for sharpening the axes and for setting the goads.[d] 22 So on the day of the battle (E)there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people with Saul and Jonathan, but Saul and Jonathan his son had them. 23 And (F)the garrison of the Philistines went out to the (G)pass of (H)Michmash.
