Lamentations 2:13-15

World English Bible

¹³ What shall I testify to you?
    What shall I liken to you, daughter of Jerusalem?
What shall I compare to you,
    that I may comfort you, virgin daughter of Zion?
For your breach is as big as the sea.
    Who can heal you?

¹⁴ Your prophets have seen false and foolish visions for you.
    They have not uncovered your iniquity,
    to reverse your captivity,
    but have seen for you false revelations and causes of banishment.

¹⁵ All that pass by clap their hands at you.
    They hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying,
“Is this the city that men called ‘The perfection of beauty,
    the joy of the whole earth’?”
