Lamentations 2:12-14
English Standard Version
12 They cry to their mothers,
(A)“Where is bread and wine?”
(B)as they faint like a wounded man
in the streets of the city,
as their life is poured out
on their mothers' bosom.
13 What can I say for you, (C)to what compare you,
O daughter of Jerusalem?
(D)What can I liken to you, that I may comfort you,
O virgin daughter of Zion?
(E)For your ruin is vast as the sea;
who can heal you?
14 (F)Your prophets have seen for you
false and deceptive visions;
(G)they have not exposed your iniquity
to (H)restore your fortunes,
(I)but have seen for you (J)oracles
that are false and misleading.
Lamentations 2:12-14
New International Version
12 They say to their mothers,
“Where is bread and wine?”(A)
as they faint like the wounded
in the streets of the city,
as their lives ebb away(B)
in their mothers’ arms.(C)
