Lamentations 4:7-9

Names of God Bible

⁷ Zion’s princes were purer than snow, whiter than milk.
    Their bodies were more pink than coral.
    Their hair was like sapphires.
⁸ Their faces are now blacker than soot.
    No one recognizes them on the streets.
    Their skin has shriveled on their bones.
        It has become as dry as bark.
⁹ Those who were killed with swords are better off
    than those who are dying from starvation.
    Those who were stabbed bled to death.
    The others are dying because there is nothing in the fields to eat.
