Lamentations 2:13-15
Names of God Bible
The Prophet Speaks Out: The Lord Destroyed You
13 “What example can I give you?
What parallel can I show you, people of Jerusalem?
What comparison can I make that will comfort you, beloved people of Zion?
Your wounds are as deep as the sea.
Who can heal you?
14 Your prophets saw misleading visions about you.
They painted a good picture of you.
They didn’t expose your guilt in order to make things better again.
They gave you false prophecies that misled you.
15 Everyone who walks along the road shakes a fist at you.
They hiss and shake their heads at Jerusalem’s people:
‘Is this the city they used to call absolutely beautiful,
the joy of the whole world?’
Lamentations 2:13-15
New International Version
13 What can I say for you?(A)
With what can I compare you,
Daughter(B) Jerusalem?
To what can I liken you,
that I may comfort you,
Virgin Daughter Zion?(C)
Your wound is as deep as the sea.(D)
Who can heal you?
