Lamentations 4:20-22

The Voice

²⁰ Trapped, our king, the Eternal’s anointed, the breath of our life,
    was taken to their pits;
Of him we said, “He casts a long shadow
    that will protect us from the nations.”

²¹ Utter your words of joy: Edom, inhabitants of the land of Uz,
    go ahead—be happy.
In time the cup of suffering will be yours too,
    and you’ll drink so deeply, so perilously as to be intoxicated and stripped naked.

²² Viciously, daughter Zion, your iniquity has been punished.
    That is done; your exile is over.
Daughter Edom, on the other hand, is a different story:
    you’ll be called to account for your sins and uncovered accordingly.
