Baruch 2:2-4

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

² Under the whole heaven there has not been done the like of what he has done in Jerusalem, in accordance with the threats that were^[a] written in the law of Moses. ³ Some of us ate the flesh of their sons and others the flesh of their daughters. ⁴ He made them subject to all the kingdoms around us, to be an object of scorn and a desolation among all the surrounding peoples, where the Lord has scattered them.
