Lamentations 2:17-19

Names of God Bible

¹⁷ Yahweh has accomplished what he had planned to do.
    He carried out the threat he announced long ago.
    He tore you down without any pity, Jerusalem.
    He made your enemies gloat over you.
    He raised the weapons of your opponents.
¹⁸ The hearts of Jerusalem’s people
    cried out to Adonay, the wall of Zion’s people.
        Let your tears run down like a river day and night.
            Don’t let them stop.
                Don’t let your eyes rest.
¹⁹ Get up! Cry out at night, every hour on the hour.
    Pour your heart out like water in the presence of Adonay.
        Lift up your hands to him in prayer
            for the life of your little children
                who faint from hunger at every street corner.”
