Lamentations 1:14-16
International Standard Version
14 The yoke of my sins was bound on,[a]
fastened together by his hand.
They settled on my neck;
he caused my strength to fail.
The Lord placed me in the power
of those I cannot resist.
15 He rejected all the valiant men—
the Lord, in my midst.
He set a time to meet with me
to crush my young warriors.
The Lord has trampled, as in a winepress,
the fair virgin that is[b] Judah.
16 Because of all this, I weep;
my eyes[c] stream with tears
because far from me
is the comforter of my soul.
My children are sorrowful,
because the enemy has won.
