Lamentations 4:2-4
English Standard Version
Lamentations 4:2-4
English Standard Version
2 The precious sons of Zion,
worth their weight in (A)fine gold,
how they are regarded as (B)earthen pots,
the work of a potter's hands!
3 Even jackals offer the breast;
they nurse their young;
but the daughter of my people has become cruel,
like the ostriches in the wilderness.
4 The tongue of the nursing infant (C)sticks
to the roof of its mouth for thirst;
(D)the children beg for food,
but no one gives to them.
