Lamentations 1:5-7
New Century Version
5 Her foes are now her masters.
Her enemies enjoy the wealth they have taken.
The Lord is punishing her
for her many sins.
Her children have gone away
as captives of the enemy.
6 The beauty of Jerusalem
has gone away.
Her rulers are like deer
that cannot find food.
They are weak
and run from the hunters.
7 Jerusalem is suffering and homeless.
She remembers all the good things
from the past.
But her people were defeated by the enemy,
and there was no one to help her.
When her enemies saw her,
they laughed to see her ruined.
Lamentations 1:5-7
New International Version
5 Her foes have become her masters;
her enemies are at ease.
The Lord has brought her grief(A)
because of her many sins.(B)
Her children have gone into exile,(C)
captive before the foe.(D)
