Lamentations 1:6-8
Contemporary English Version
6 Zion's glory has disappeared.
Her leaders are like deer
that cannot find pasture;
they are hunted down
till their strength is gone.
7 Her people recall the good life
that once was theirs;
now they suffer
and are scattered.
No one was there to protect them
from their enemies who sneered
when their city was taken.
8 Jerusalem's horrible sins
have made the city a joke.
Those who once admired her
now hate her instead—
she has been disgraced;
she groans and turns away.
Lamentations 1:6-8
New International Version
6 All the splendor has departed
from Daughter Zion.(A)
Her princes are like deer
that find no pasture;
in weakness they have fled(B)
before the pursuer.
