Lamentations 2:13-15
Revised Standard Version
13 What can I say for you, to what compare you,
O daughter of Jerusalem?
What can I liken to you, that I may comfort you,
O virgin daughter of Zion?
For vast as the sea is your ruin;
who can restore you?
14 Your prophets have seen for you
false and deceptive visions;
they have not exposed your iniquity
to restore your fortunes,
but have seen for you oracles
false and misleading.
15 All who pass along the way
clap their hands at you;
they hiss and wag their heads
at the daughter of Jerusalem;
“Is this the city which was called
the perfection of beauty,
the joy of all the earth?”
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?
