Lamentations 4:10-12

Modern English Version

¹⁰ The hands of compassionate women
    have boiled their own children;
they became their food in the destruction
    of the daughter of my people.

¹¹ The Lord has fulfilled His fury,
    He has poured out His fierce anger.
He kindled a fire in Zion,
    and it has devoured its foundations.

¹² The kings of the earth, and all the inhabitants of the world,
    would not have believed
that the adversary and the enemy could enter
    the gates of Jerusalem.
