Lamentations 4:19-21
Holman Christian Standard Bible
ק Qof
19 Those who chased us were swifter
than eagles in the sky;(A)
they relentlessly pursued us over the mountains
and ambushed us in the wilderness.
ר Resh
20 The Lord’s anointed,[a] the breath of our life,[b](B)
was captured in their traps.
We had said about him,
“We will live under his protection among the nations.”
שׂ Sin
21 So rejoice and be glad, Daughter Edom,(C)
you resident of the land of Uz!(D)
Yet the cup(E) will pass to you as well;
you will get drunk and expose yourself.
