Lamentations 4:8-10
New King James Version
Lamentations 4:8-10
New King James Version
8 Now their appearance is blacker than soot;
They go unrecognized in the streets;
(A)Their skin clings to their bones,
It has become as dry as wood.
9 Those slain by the sword are better off
Than those who die of hunger;
For these (B)pine away,
Stricken for lack of the fruits of the (C)field.
10 The hands of the (D)compassionate women
Have [a]cooked their (E)own children;
They became (F)food for them
In the destruction of the daughter of my people.
