Lamentations 1:16-18
New Century Version
16 “I cry about these things;
my eyes overflow with tears.
There is no one near to comfort me,
no one who can give me strength again.
My children are left sad and lonely,
because the enemy has won.”
17 Jerusalem reaches out her hands,
but there is no one to comfort her.
The Lord commanded the people of Jacob
to be surrounded by their enemies.
Jerusalem is now unclean
like those around her.
18 Jerusalem says, “The Lord is right,
but I refused to obey him.
Listen, all you people,
and look at my pain.
My young women and men
have gone into captivity.
Lamentations 1:16-18
New International Version
16 “This is why I weep
and my eyes overflow with tears.(A)
No one is near to comfort(B) me,
no one to restore my spirit.
My children are destitute
because the enemy has prevailed.”(C)
