Lamentations 4:6-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
ו Vav
6 The punishment of my dear people
is greater than that of Sodom,(A)
which was overthrown in an instant
without a hand laid on it.
ז Zayin
7 Her dignitaries were brighter than snow,
whiter than milk;
their bodies[a] were more ruddy than coral,
their appearance like sapphire.[b]
ח Khet
8 Now they appear darker than soot;(B)
they are not recognized in the streets.
Their skin has shriveled on their bones;
it has become dry like wood.
