Lamentations 4:11-13

Lexham English Bible

¹¹ Yahweh has completed his anger,
    he has poured out his fierce anger;^[a]
he has kindled a fire in Zion,
    it consumed her^[b] foundations.
¹² The kings of the earth did not believe,
    and all the inhabitants of the world,
that a foe and an enemy could enter
    into the gates of Jerusalem.
¹³ Because of the sins of her prophets,
    the guilt of her priests,
who shed blood in her midst,
    of righteous people.
