Lamentations 1:16-17
New International Version

16 “This is why I weep
    and my eyes overflow with tears.(A)
No one is near to comfort(B) me,
    no one to restore my spirit.
My children are destitute
    because the enemy has prevailed.”(C)

17 Zion stretches out her hands,(D)
    but there is no one to comfort her.
The Lord has decreed for Jacob
    that his neighbors become his foes;(E)
Jerusalem has become
    an unclean(F) thing(G) among them.

Lamentations 1:16-17
King James Version

16 For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water, because the comforter that should relieve my soul is far from me: my children are desolate, because the enemy prevailed.

17 Zion spreadeth forth her hands, and there is none to comfort her: the Lord hath commanded concerning Jacob, that his adversaries should be round about him: Jerusalem is as a menstruous woman among them.
