Lamentations 2:8-10
English Standard Version
8 (A)The Lord determined to lay in ruins
(B)the wall of the daughter of Zion;
(C)he stretched out the measuring line;
he did not restrain his hand from destroying;
(D)he caused rampart and wall to lament;
(E)they languished together.
9 Her gates have sunk into the ground;
(F)he has ruined (G)and broken her bars;
(H)her king and princes are among the nations;
the law is no more,
and (I)her prophets find
no vision from the Lord.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion
(J)sit on the ground (K)in silence;
(L)they have thrown dust on their heads
and (M)put on sackcloth;
the young women of Jerusalem
have bowed their heads to the ground.
Lamentations 2:8-10
New International Version
8 The Lord determined to tear down
the wall around Daughter Zion.(A)
He stretched out a measuring line(B)

He made ramparts(C) and walls lament;
together they wasted away.(D)
