Lamentations 4:20-22

Living Bible

²⁰ Our king—the life of our life, the Lord’s anointed—was captured in their snares. Yes, even our mighty king, about whom we had boasted that under his protection we could hold our own against any nation on earth!

²¹ Do you rejoice, O people of Edom, in the land of Uz? But you, too, will feel the awful anger of the Lord. ²² Israel’s exile for her sins will end at last, but Edom’s never.
