Lamentations 4:16-18
American Standard Version
16 The [a]anger of Jehovah hath scattered them; he will no more regard them:
They respected not the persons of the priests, they favored not the elders.
17 Our eyes do yet fail in looking for our vain help:
In our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save.
18 They hunt our steps, so that we cannot go in our streets:
Our end is near, our days are fulfilled; for our end is come.

Lamentations 4:16-18
New International Version
16 The Lord himself has scattered them;
he no longer watches over them.(A)
The priests are shown no honor,
the elders(B) no favor.(C)
17 Moreover, our eyes failed,
looking in vain(D) for help;(E)
from our towers we watched
for a nation(F) that could not save us.
18 People stalked us at every step,
so we could not walk in our streets.
Our end was near, our days were numbered,
for our end had come.(G)
