Lamentations 1:5-7
New American Standard Bible 1995
5 Her adversaries have become [a]her masters,
Her enemies [b]prosper;
For the Lord has (A)caused her grief
Because of the multitude of her transgressions;
Her little ones have gone away
As captives before the adversary.
6 All her (B)majesty
Has departed from the daughter of Zion;
Her princes have become like deer
That have found no pasture;
And they have [c](C)fled without strength
Before the pursuer.
7 In the days of her affliction and homelessness
(D)Jerusalem remembers all her precious things
That were from the days of old,
When her people fell into the hand of the adversary
And (E)no one helped her.
The adversaries saw her,
They (F)mocked at her [d]ruin.
