Lamentations 4:17-19
Revised Standard Version
Lamentations 4:17-19
Revised Standard Version
17 Our eyes failed, ever watching
vainly for help;
in our watching[a] we watched
for a nation which could not save.
18 Men dogged our steps
so that we could not walk in our streets;
our end drew near; our days were numbered;
for our end had come.
19 Our pursuers were swifter
than the vultures in the heavens;
they chased us on the mountains,
they lay in wait for us in the wilderness.
