Lamentations 4:4-6

Lamentations 4:4-6
New Living Translation
4 The parched tongues of their little ones
stick to the roofs of their mouths in thirst.
The children cry for bread,
but no one has any to give them.
5 The people who once ate the richest foods
now beg in the streets for anything they can get.
Those who once wore the finest clothes
now search the garbage dumps for food.
6 The guilt[a] of my people
is greater than that of Sodom,
where utter disaster struck in a moment
and no hand offered help.
