Lamentations 1:9-11
English Standard Version Anglicised
9 Her uncleanness was (A)in her skirts;
(B)she took no thought of her future;[a]
therefore her fall is terrible;
(C)she has no comforter.
“O Lord, behold my affliction,
for the enemy has (D)triumphed!”
10 The enemy has stretched out his hands
over all her (E)precious things;
for she has seen (F)the nations
enter her sanctuary,
those whom you (G)forbade
to enter your congregation.
11 All her people (H)groan
as (I)they search for bread;
they trade their (J)treasures for (K)food
to revive their strength.
“Look, O Lord, and see,
for I am despised.”

Lamentations 1:9-11
New International Version
9 Her filthiness clung to her skirts;
she did not consider her future.(A)
Her fall(B) was astounding;
there was none to comfort(C) her.
“Look, Lord, on my affliction,(D)
for the enemy has triumphed.”
Lamentations 1:9-11
King James Version
9 Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembereth not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O Lord, behold my affliction: for the enemy hath magnified himself.
10 The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her pleasant things: for she hath seen that the heathen entered into her sanctuary, whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.
11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to relieve the soul: see, O Lord, and consider; for I am become vile.
