Lamentations 1

KJV

1  How³⁴⁹ doth the city⁵⁸⁹² sit³⁴²⁷ solitary,⁹¹⁰ that was full⁷²²⁷ of people!⁵⁹⁷¹ how is she become¹⁹⁶¹ as a widow!⁴⁹⁰ she that was great⁷²²⁷ among the nations,¹⁴⁷¹ and princess⁸²⁸² among the provinces,⁴⁰⁸² how is she become¹⁹⁶¹ tributary!⁴⁵²²

2  She weepeth sore^{1058 1058} in the night,³⁹¹⁵ and her tears¹⁸³² are on⁵⁹²¹ her cheeks:³⁸⁹⁵ among all^{4480 3605} her lovers¹⁵⁷ she hath none³⁶⁹ to comfort⁵¹⁶² her: all³⁶⁰⁵ her friends⁷⁴⁵³ have dealt treacherously⁸⁹⁸ with her, they are become¹⁹⁶¹ her enemies.³⁴¹

3  Judah³⁰⁶³ is gone into captivity¹⁵⁴⁰ because of affliction,^{4480 6040} and because of great^{4480 7230} servitude:⁵⁶⁵⁶ she¹⁹³¹ dwelleth³⁴²⁷ among the heathen,¹⁴⁷¹ she findeth⁴⁶⁷² no³⁸⁰⁸ rest:⁴⁴⁹⁴ all³⁶⁰⁵ her persecutors⁷²⁹¹ overtook⁵³⁸¹ her between⁹⁹⁶ the straits.⁴⁷¹²

4  The ways¹⁸⁷⁰ of Zion⁶⁷²⁶ do mourn,⁵⁷ because none^{4480 1097} come⁹³⁵ to the solemn feasts:⁴¹⁵⁰ all³⁶⁰⁵ her gates⁸¹⁷⁹ are desolate:⁸⁰⁷⁴ her priests³⁵⁴⁸ sigh,⁵⁸⁴ her virgins¹³³⁰ are afflicted,³⁰¹³ and she¹⁹³¹ is in bitterness.⁴⁸⁴³

5  Her adversaries⁶⁸⁶² are¹⁹⁶¹ the chief,⁷²¹⁸ her enemies³⁴¹ prosper;⁷⁹⁵¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath afflicted³⁰¹³ her for⁵⁹²¹ the multitude⁷²³⁰ of her transgressions:⁶⁵⁸⁸ her children⁵⁷⁶⁸ are gone¹⁹⁸⁰ into captivity⁷⁶²⁸ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the enemy.⁶⁸⁶²

6  And from⁴⁴⁸⁰ the daughter¹³²³ of Zion⁶⁷²⁶ all³⁶⁰⁵ her beauty¹⁹²⁶ is departed:³³¹⁸ her princes⁸²⁶⁹ are become¹⁹⁶¹ like harts³⁵⁴ that find⁴⁶⁷² no³⁸⁰⁸ pasture,⁴⁸²⁹ and they are gone¹⁹⁸⁰ without³⁸⁰⁸ strength³⁵⁸¹ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the pursuer.⁷²⁹¹

7  Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ remembered²¹⁴² in the days³¹¹⁷ of her affliction⁶⁰⁴⁰ and of her miseries⁴⁷⁸⁸ all³⁶⁰⁵ her pleasant things⁴²⁶² that⁸³⁴ she had¹⁹⁶¹ in the days^{4480 3117} of old,⁶⁹²⁴ when her people⁵⁹⁷¹ fell⁵³⁰⁷ into the hand³⁰²⁷ of the enemy,⁶⁸⁶² and none³⁶⁹ did help⁵⁸²⁶ her: the adversaries⁶⁸⁶² saw⁷²⁰⁰ her, and did mock⁷⁸³² at⁵⁹²¹ her sabbaths.⁴⁸⁶⁸

8  Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ hath grievously sinned;^{2398 2399} therefore^{5921 3651} she is¹⁹⁶¹ removed:⁵²⁰⁶ all³⁶⁰⁵ that honored³⁵¹³ her despise²¹⁵¹ her, because³⁵⁸⁸ they have seen⁷²⁰⁰ her nakedness:⁶¹⁷² yea,¹⁵⁷¹ she¹⁹³¹ sigheth,⁵⁸⁴ and turneth⁷⁷²⁵ backward.²⁶⁸

9  Her filthiness²⁹³² is in her skirts;⁷⁷⁵⁷ she remembereth²¹⁴² not³⁸⁰⁸ her last end;³¹⁹ therefore she came down³³⁸¹ wonderfully:⁶³⁸² she had no³⁶⁹ comforter.⁵¹⁶² O LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ behold^{7200 853} my affliction:⁶⁰⁴⁰ for³⁵⁸⁸ the enemy³⁴¹ hath magnified¹⁴³¹ himself.

10  The adversary⁶⁸⁶² hath spread out⁶⁵⁶⁶ his hand³⁰²⁷ upon⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ her pleasant things:⁴²⁶¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ she hath seen⁷²⁰⁰ that the heathen¹⁴⁷¹ entered⁹³⁵ into her sanctuary,⁴⁷²⁰ whom⁸³⁴ thou didst command⁶⁶⁸⁰ that they should not³⁸⁰⁸ enter⁹³⁵ into thy congregation.⁶⁹⁵¹

11  All³⁶⁰⁵ her people⁵⁹⁷¹ sigh,⁵⁸⁴ they seek¹²⁴⁵ bread;³⁸⁹⁹ they have given⁵⁴¹⁴ their pleasant things⁴²⁶² for meat⁴⁰⁰ to relieve⁷⁷²⁵ the soul:⁵³¹⁵ see,⁷²⁰⁰ O LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and consider;⁵⁰²⁷ for³⁵⁸⁸ I am become¹⁹⁶¹ vile.²¹⁵¹

12  Is it nothing³⁸⁰⁸ to⁴¹³ you, all³⁶⁰⁵ ye that pass by?^{5674 1870} behold,⁵⁰²⁷ and see⁷²⁰⁰ if⁵¹⁸ there be³⁴²⁶ any sorrow⁴³⁴¹ like unto my sorrow,⁴³⁴¹ which⁸³⁴ is done⁵⁹⁵³ unto me, wherewith⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath afflicted³⁰¹³ me in the day³¹¹⁷ of his fierce²⁷⁴⁰ anger.⁶³⁹

13  From above^{4480 4791} hath he sent⁷⁹⁷¹ fire⁷⁸⁴ into my bones,⁶¹⁰⁶ and it prevaileth against⁷²⁸⁷ them: he hath spread⁶⁵⁶⁶ a net⁷⁵⁶⁸ for my feet,⁷²⁷² he hath turned⁷⁷²⁵ me back:²⁶⁸ he hath made⁵⁴¹⁴ me desolate⁸⁰⁷⁴ and faint¹⁷³⁹ all³⁶⁰⁵ the day.³¹¹⁷

14  The yoke⁵⁹²³ of my transgressions⁶⁵⁸⁸ is bound⁸²⁴⁴ by his hand:³⁰²⁷ they are wreathed,⁸²⁷⁶ and come up⁵⁹²⁷ upon⁵⁹²¹ my neck:⁶⁶⁷⁷ he hath made my strength³⁵⁸¹ to fall,³⁷⁸² the Lord¹³⁶ hath delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ me into their hands,³⁰²⁷ from whom I am not able^{3201 3808} to rise up.⁶⁹⁶⁵

15  The Lord¹³⁶ hath trodden under foot⁵⁵⁴¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ my mighty⁴⁷ men in the midst⁷¹³⁰ of me: he hath called⁷¹²¹ an assembly⁴¹⁵⁰ against⁵⁹²¹ me to crush⁷⁶⁶⁵ my young men:⁹⁷⁰ the Lord¹³⁶ hath trodden¹⁸⁶⁹ the virgin,¹³³⁰ the daughter¹³²³ of Judah,³⁰⁶³ as in a winepress.¹⁶⁶⁰

16  For⁵⁹²¹ these⁴²⁸ things I⁵⁸⁹ weep;¹⁰⁵⁸ mine eye,⁵⁸⁶⁹ mine eye⁵⁸⁶⁹ runneth down³³⁸¹ with water,⁴³²⁵ because³⁵⁸⁸ the comforter⁵¹⁶² that should relieve⁷⁷²⁵ my soul⁵³¹⁵ is far⁷³⁶⁸ from⁴⁴⁸⁰ me: my children¹¹²¹ are¹⁹⁶¹ desolate,⁸⁰⁷⁴ because³⁵⁸⁸ the enemy³⁴¹ prevailed.¹³⁹⁶

17  Zion⁶⁷²⁶ spreadeth forth⁶⁵⁶⁶ her hands,³⁰²⁷ and there is none³⁶⁹ to comfort⁵¹⁶² her: the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath commanded⁶⁶⁸⁰ concerning Jacob,³²⁹⁰ that his adversaries⁶⁸⁶² should be round about⁵⁴³⁹ him: Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ is¹⁹⁶¹ as a menstruous woman⁵⁰⁷⁹ among⁹⁹⁶ them.

18  The LORD³⁰⁶⁸ is righteous;⁶⁶⁶² for³⁵⁸⁸ I have rebelled⁴⁷⁸⁴ against his commandment:⁶³¹⁰ hear,⁸⁰⁸⁵ I pray you,⁴⁹⁹⁴ all³⁶⁰⁵ people,⁵⁹⁷¹ and behold⁷²⁰⁰ my sorrow:⁴³⁴¹ my virgins¹³³⁰ and my young men⁹⁷⁰ are gone¹⁹⁸⁰ into captivity.⁷⁶²⁸

19  I called⁷¹²¹ for my lovers,¹⁵⁷ but they¹⁹⁹² deceived⁷⁴¹¹ me: my priests³⁵⁴⁸ and mine elders²²⁰⁵ gave up the ghost¹⁴⁷⁸ in the city,⁵⁸⁹² while³⁵⁸⁸ they sought¹²⁴⁵ their meat⁴⁰⁰ to relieve^{7725 853} their souls.⁵³¹⁵

20  Behold,⁷²⁰⁰ O LORD;³⁰⁶⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ I am in distress:⁶⁸⁶² my bowels⁴⁵⁷⁸ are troubled;²⁵⁶⁰ mine heart³⁸²⁰ is turned²⁰¹⁵ within⁷¹³⁰ me; for³⁵⁸⁸ I have grievously rebelled:^{4784 4784} abroad^{4480 2351} the sword²⁷¹⁹ bereaveth,⁷⁹²¹ at home¹⁰⁰⁴ there is as death.⁴¹⁹⁴

21  They have heard⁸⁰⁸⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ I⁵⁸⁹ sigh:⁵⁸⁴ there is none³⁶⁹ to comfort⁵¹⁶² me: all³⁶⁰⁵ mine enemies³⁴¹ have heard⁸⁰⁸⁵ of my trouble;⁷⁴⁵¹ they are glad⁷⁷⁹⁷ that³⁵⁸⁸ thou⁸⁵⁹ hast done⁶²¹³ it: thou wilt bring⁹³⁵ the day³¹¹⁷ that thou hast called,⁷¹²¹ and they shall be¹⁹⁶¹ like unto me.³⁶⁴⁴

22  Let all³⁶⁰⁵ their wickedness⁷⁴⁵¹ come⁹³⁵ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ thee; and do⁵⁹⁵³ unto them, as⁸³⁴ thou hast done⁵⁹⁵³ unto me for⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ my transgressions:⁶⁵⁸⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ my sighs⁵⁸⁵ are many,⁷²²⁷ and my heart³⁸²⁰ is faint.¹⁷⁴²

1 πῶς ἐκάθισεν μόνη ἡ πόλις ἡ πεπληθυμμένη λαῶν ἐγενήθη ὡς χήρα πεπληθυμμένη ἐν ἔθνεσιν ἄρχουσα ἐν χώραις ἐγενήθη εἰς φόρον

2 κλαίουσα ἔκλαυσεν ἐν νυκτί καὶ τὰ δάκρυα αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τῶν σιαγόνων αὐτῆς καὶ οὐχ ὑπάρχει ὁ παρακαλῶν αὐτὴν ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἀγαπώντων αὐτήν πάντες οἱ φιλοῦντες αὐτὴν ἠθέτησαν ἐν αὐτῇ ἐγένοντο αὐτῇ εἰς ἐχθρούς

3 μετῳκίσθη ἡ Ιουδαία ἀπὸ ταπεινώσεως αὐτῆς καὶ ἀπὸ πλήθους δουλείας αὐτῆς ἐκάθισεν ἐν ἔθνεσιν οὐχ εὗρεν ἀνάπαυσιν πάντες οἱ καταδιώκοντες αὐτὴν κατέλαβον αὐτὴν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν θλιβόντων

4 ὁδοὶ Σιων πενθοῦσιν παρὰ τὸ μὴ εἶναι ἐρχομένους ἐν ἑορτῇ πᾶσαι αἱ πύλαι αὐτῆς ἠφανισμέναι οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτῆς ἀναστενάζουσιν αἱ παρθένοι αὐτῆς ἀγόμεναι καὶ αὐτὴ πικραινομένη ἐν ἑαυτῇ

5 ἐγένοντο οἱ θλίβοντες αὐτὴν εἰς κεφαλήν καὶ οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτῆς εὐθηνοῦσαν ὅτι κύριος ἐταπείνωσεν αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν ἀσεβειῶν αὐτῆς τὰ νήπια αὐτῆς ἐπορεύθησαν ἐν αἰχμαλωσίᾳ κατὰ πρόσωπον θλίβοντος

6 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ θυγατρὸς Σιων πᾶσα ἡ εὐπρέπεια αὐτῆς ἐγένοντο οἱ ἄρχοντες αὐτῆς ὡς κριοὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκοντες νομὴν καὶ ἐπορεύοντο ἐν οὐκ ἰσχύι κατὰ πρόσωπον διώκοντος

7 ἐμνήσθη Ιερουσαλημ ἡμερῶν ταπεινώσεως αὐτῆς καὶ ἀπωσμῶν αὐτῆς πάντα τὰ ἐπιθυμήματα αὐτῆς ὅσα ἦν ἐξ ἡμερῶν ἀρχαίων ἐν τῷ πεσεῖν τὸν λαὸν αὐτῆς εἰς χεῖρας θλίβοντος καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ βοηθῶν αὐτῇ ἰδόντες οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτῆς ἐγέλασαν ἐπὶ μετοικεσίᾳ αὐτῆς

8 ἁμαρτίαν ἥμαρτεν Ιερουσαλημ διὰ τοῦτο εἰς σάλον ἐγένετο πάντες οἱ δοξάζοντες αὐτὴν ἐταπείνωσαν αὐτήν εἶδον γὰρ τὴν ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῆς καί γε αὐτὴ στενάζουσα καὶ ἀπεστράφη ὀπίσω

9 ἀκαθαρσία αὐτῆς πρὸς ποδῶν αὐτῆς οὐκ ἐμνήσθη ἔσχατα αὐτῆς καὶ κατεβίβασεν ὑπέρογκα οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ παρακαλῶν αὐτήν ἰδέ κύριε τὴν ταπείνωσίν μου ὅτι ἐμεγαλύνθη ἐχθρός

10 χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐξεπέτασεν θλίβων ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ ἐπιθυμήματα αὐτῆς εἶδεν γὰρ ἔθνη εἰσελθόντα εἰς τὸ ἁγίασμα αὐτῆς ἃ ἐνετείλω μὴ εἰσελθεῖν αὐτὰ εἰς ἐκκλησίαν σου

11 πᾶς ὁ λαὸς αὐτῆς καταστενάζοντες ζητοῦντες ἄρτον ἔδωκαν τὰ ἐπιθυμήματα αὐτῆς ἐν βρώσει τοῦ ἐπιστρέψαι ψυχήν ἰδέ κύριε καὶ ἐπίβλεψον ὅτι ἐγενήθην ἠτιμωμένη

12 οὐ πρὸς ὑμᾶς πάντες οἱ παραπορευόμενοι ὁδόν ἐπιστρέψατε καὶ ἴδετε εἰ ἔστιν ἄλγος κατὰ τὸ ἄλγος μου ὃ ἐγενήθη φθεγξάμενος ἐν ἐμοὶ ἐταπείνωσέν με κύριος ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ὀργῆς θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ

13 ἐξ ὕψους αὐτοῦ ἀπέστειλεν πῦρ ἐν τοῖς ὀστέοις μου κατήγαγεν αὐτό διεπέτασεν δίκτυον τοῖς ποσίν μου ἀπέστρεψέν με εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω ἔδωκέν με ἠφανισμένην ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ὀδυνωμένην

14 ἐγρηγορήθη ἐπὶ τὰ ἀσεβήματά μου ἐν χερσίν μου συνεπλάκησαν ἀνέβησαν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλόν μου ἠσθένησεν ἡ ἰσχύς μου ὅτι ἔδωκεν κύριος ἐν χερσίν μου ὀδύνας οὐ δυνήσομαι στῆναι

15 ἐξῆρεν πάντας τοὺς ἰσχυρούς μου ὁ κύριος ἐκ μέσου μου ἐκάλεσεν ἐπ᾽ ἐμὲ καιρὸν τοῦ συντρῖψαι ἐκλεκτούς μου ληνὸν ἐπάτησεν κύριος παρθένῳ θυγατρὶ Ιουδα ἐπὶ τούτοις ἐγὼ κλαίω

16 ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου κατήγαγεν ὕδωρ ὅτι ἐμακρύνθη ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ ὁ παρακαλῶν με ὁ ἐπιστρέφων ψυχήν μου ἐγένοντο οἱ υἱοί μου ἠφανισμένοι ὅτι ἐκραταιώθη ὁ ἐχθρός

17 διεπέτασεν Σιων χεῖρας αὐτῆς οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ παρακαλῶν αὐτήν ἐνετείλατο κύριος τῷ Ιακωβ κύκλῳ αὐτοῦ οἱ θλίβοντες αὐτόν ἐγενήθη Ιερουσαλημ εἰς ἀποκαθημένην ἀνὰ μέσον αὐτῶν

18 δίκαιός ἐστιν κύριος ὅτι τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ παρεπίκρανα ἀκούσατε δή πάντες οἱ λαοί καὶ ἴδετε τὸ ἄλγος μου παρθένοι μου καὶ νεανίσκοι μου ἐπορεύθησαν ἐν αἰχμαλωσίᾳ

19 ἐκάλεσα τοὺς ἐραστάς μου αὐτοὶ δὲ παρελογίσαντό με οἱ ἱερεῖς μου καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροί μου ἐν τῇ πόλει ἐξέλιπον ὅτι ἐζήτησαν βρῶσιν αὐτοῖς ἵνα ἐπιστρέψωσιν ψυχὰς αὐτῶν καὶ οὐχ εὗρον

20 ἰδέ κύριε ὅτι θλίβομαι ἡ κοιλία μου ἐταράχθη καὶ ἡ καρδία μου ἐστράφη ἐν ἐμοί ὅτι παραπικραίνουσα παρεπίκρανα ἔξωθεν ἠτέκνωσέν με μάχαιρα ὥσπερ θάνατος ἐν οἴκῳ

21 ἀκούσατε δὴ ὅτι στενάζω ἐγώ οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ παρακαλῶν με πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί μου ἤκουσαν τὰ κακά μου καὶ ἐχάρησαν ὅτι σὺ ἐποίησας ἐπήγαγες ἡμέραν ἐκάλεσας καιρόν καὶ ἐγένοντο ὅμοιοι ἐμοί

22 εἰσέλθοι πᾶσα ἡ κακία αὐτῶν κατὰ πρόσωπόν σου καὶ ἐπιφύλλισον αὐτοῖς ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν ἐπιφυλλίδα περὶ πάντων τῶν ἁμαρτημάτων μου ὅτι πολλοὶ οἱ στεναγμοί μου καὶ ἡ καρδία μου λυπεῖται

1 Et factum est, postquam in captivitatem redactus est Israël, et Jerusalem deserta est, sedit Jeremias propheta flens, et planxit lamentatione hac in Jerusalem: et amaro animo suspirans et ejulans, dixit: [Quomodo sedet sola
civitas plena populo!
Facta est quasi vidua
domina gentium;
princeps provinciarum
facta est sub tributo.

2 Plorans ploravit in nocte,
et lacrimæ ejus in maxillis ejus:
non est qui consoletur eam,
et omnibus caris ejus;
omnes amici ejus spreverunt eam,
et facti sunt ei inimici.

3 Migravit Judas propter afflictionem,
et multitudinem servitutis;
habitavit inter gentes,
nec invenit requiem:
omnes persecutores ejus apprehenderunt eam
inter angustias.

4 Viæ Sion lugent, eo quod non sint
qui veniant ad solemnitatem:
omnes portæ ejus destructæ,
sacerdotes ejus gementes;
virgines ejus squalidæ,
et ipsa oppressa amaritudine.

5 Facti sunt hostes ejus in capite;
inimici ejus locupletati sunt:
quia Dominus locutus est super eam
propter multitudinem iniquitatum ejus.
Parvuli ejus ducti sunt in captivitatem
ante faciem tribulantis.

6 Et egressus est a filia Sion
omnis decor ejus;
facti sunt principes ejus velut arietes
non invenientes pascua,
et abierunt absque fortitudine
ante faciem subsequentis.

7 Recordata est Jerusalem dierum afflictionis suæ,
et prævaricationis,
omnium desiderabilium suorum,
quæ habuerat a diebus antiquis,
cum caderet populus ejus in manu hostili,
et non esset auxiliator:
viderunt eam hostes,
et deriserunt sabbata ejus.

8 Peccatum peccavit Jerusalem,
propterea instabilis facta est;
omnes qui glorificabant eam spreverunt illam,
quia viderunt ignominiam ejus:
ipsa autem gemens
conversa est retrorsum.

9 Sordes ejus in pedibus ejus,
nec recordata est finis sui;
deposita est vehementer,
non habens consolatorem.
Vide, Domine, afflictionem meam,
quoniam erectus est inimicus.

10 Manum suam misit hostis
ad omnia desiderabilia ejus,
quia vidit gentes
ingressas sanctuarium suum,
de quibus præceperas
ne intrarent in ecclesiam tuam.

11 Omnis populus ejus gemens,
et quærens panem;
dederunt pretiosa quæque pro cibo
ad refocillandam animam.
Vide, Domine, et considera
quoniam facta sum vilis!

12 O vos omnes qui transitis per viam,
attendite, et videte
si est dolor sicut dolor meus!
quoniam vindemiavit me,
ut locutus est Dominus,
in die iræ furoris sui.

13 De excelso misit ignem in ossibus meis,
et erudivit me:
expandit rete pedibus meis,
convertit me retrorsum;
posuit me desolatam,
tota die mœrore confectam.

14 Vigilavit jugum iniquitatum mearum;
in manu ejus convolutæ sunt,
et impositæ collo meo.
Infirmata est virtus mea:
dedit me Dominus in manu
de qua non potero surgere.

15 Abstulit omnes magnificos meos Dominus
de medio mei;
vocavit adversum me tempus
ut contereret electos meos.
Torcular calcavit Dominus
virgini filiæ Juda.

16 Idcirco ego plorans,
et oculus meus deducens aquas,
quia longe factus est a me consolator,
convertens animam meam.
Facti sunt filii mei perditi,
quoniam invaluit inimicus.

17 Expandit Sion manus suas;
non est qui consoletur eam.
Mandavit Dominus adversum Jacob
in circuitu ejus hostes ejus;
facta est Jerusalem
quasi polluta menstruis inter eos.

18 Justus est Dominus,
quia os ejus ad iracundiam provocavi.
Audite, obsecro, universi populi,
et videte dolorem meum:
virgines meæ et juvenes mei abierunt
in captivitatem.

19 Vocavi amicos meos,
et ipsi deceperunt me;
sacerdotes mei et senes mei
in urbe consumpti sunt,
quia quæsierunt cibum sibi
ut refocillarent animam suam.

20 Vide, Domine, quoniam tribulor:
conturbatus est venter meus,
subversum est cor meum in memetipsa,
quoniam amaritudine plena sum.
Foris interfecit gladius,
et domi mors similis est.

21 Audierunt quia ingemisco ego,
et non est qui consoletur me;
omnes inimici mei audierunt malum meum,
lætati sunt quoniam tu fecisti:
adduxisti diem consolationis,
et fient similes mei.

22 Ingrediatur omne malum eorum coram te:
et vindemia eos, sicut vindemiasti me
propter omnes iniquitates meas:
multi enim gemitus mei,
et cor meum mœrens.]
