Lamentations 1:17-19

Lamentations 1:17-19
English Standard Version
17 (A)Zion stretches out her hands,
but (B)there is none to comfort her;
the Lord has commanded against Jacob
that his neighbors should be his foes;
Jerusalem has become
a filthy thing among them.
18 (C)“The Lord is in the right,
(D)for I have rebelled against his word;
but hear, all you peoples,
and see my suffering;
(E)my young women and my young men
have gone into captivity.
19 “I called to (F)my lovers,
but they deceived me;
my priests and elders
perished in the city,
while (G)they sought food
to revive their strength.
