Lamentations 2:11-13
Jubilee Bible 2000

Caph

11 My eyes fail with tears; my bowels are troubled; my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people because the children and the sucklings faint in the streets of the city.

Lamed

12 They said to their mothers, Where is the wheat and the wine? fainting as the dead in the streets of the city, pouring out their souls into their mothers’ bosom.

Mem

13 What witness shall I take to thee? Or unto whom shall I liken thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? Unto whom shall I compare thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is as great as the sea: who shall heal thee?

Lamentations 2:11-13
New International Version

11 My eyes fail from weeping,(A)
    I am in torment within(B);
my heart(C) is poured out(D) on the ground
    because my people are destroyed,(E)
because children and infants faint(F)
    in the streets of the city.

12 They say to their mothers,
    “Where is bread and wine?”(G)
as they faint like the wounded
    in the streets of the city,
as their lives ebb away(H)
    in their mothers’ arms.(I)

13 What can I say for you?(J)
    With what can I compare you,
    Daughter(K) Jerusalem?
To what can I liken you,
    that I may comfort you,
    Virgin Daughter Zion?(L)
Your wound is as deep as the sea.(M)
    Who can heal you?
