Lamentations 1:3

1:3

Judah
<03063>

is gone into captivity
<01540> (8804)

because of affliction
<06040>_,

and because of great
<07230>

servitude
<05656>_:

she dwelleth
<03427> (8804)

among the heathen
<01471>_,

she findeth
<04672> (8804)

no rest
<04494>_:

all her persecutors
<07291> (8802)

overtook
<05381> (8689)

her between the straits
<04712>_.

{because of great...: Heb. for the greatness of servitude}

Lamentations 1:9-10

1:9

Her filthiness
<02932>

[is] in her skirts
<07757>_;

she remembereth
<02142> (8804)

not her last end
<0319>_;

therefore she came down
<03381> (8799)

wonderfully
<06382>_:

she had no comforter
<05162> (8764)_.

O LORD
<03068>_,

behold
<07200> (8798)

my affliction
<06040>_:

for the enemy
<0341> (8802)

hath magnified
<01431> (8689)

[himself].

1:10

The adversary
<06862>

hath spread out
<06566> (8804)

his hand
<03027>

upon all her pleasant things
<04261>_:

for she hath seen
<07200> (8804)

[that] the heathen
<01471>

entered
<0935> (8804)

into her sanctuary
<04720>_,

whom thou didst command
<06680> (8765)

[that] they should not enter
<0935> (8799)

into thy congregation
<06951>_.

{pleasant: or, desirable}

Lamentations 1:14

1:14

The yoke
<05923>

of my transgressions
<06588>

is bound
<08244> (8738)

by his hand
<03027>_:

they are wreathed
<08276> (8691)_,

[and] come up
<05927> (8804)

upon my neck
<06677>_:

he hath made my strength
<03581>

to fall
<03782> (8689)_,

the Lord
<0136>

hath delivered
<05414> (8804)

me into [their] hands
<03027>_,

[from whom] I am not able
<03201> (8799)

to rise up
<06965> (8800)_.

Lamentations 2:1

2:1

How hath the Lord
<0136>

covered
<05743> (0)

the daughter
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>

with a cloud
<05743> (8686)

in his anger
<0639>_,

[and] cast down
<07993> (8689)

from heaven
<08064>

unto the earth
<0776>

the beauty
<08597>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and remembered
<02142> (8804)

not his footstool
<01916> <07272>

in the day
<03117>

of his anger
<0639>_!

Lamentations 2:8-9

2:8

The LORD
<03068>

hath purposed
<02803> (8804)

to destroy
<07843> (8687)

the wall
<02346>

of the daughter
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>_:

he hath stretched out
<05186> (8804)

a line
<06957>_,

he hath not withdrawn
<07725> (8689)

his hand
<03027>

from destroying
<01104> (8763)_:

therefore he made the rampart
<02426>

and the wall
<02346>

to lament
<056> (8686)_;

they languished
<0535> (8797)

together
<03162>_.

{destroying: Heb. swallowing up}

2:9

Her gates
<08179>

are sunk
<02883> (8804)

into the ground
<0776>_;

he hath destroyed
<06> (8765)

and broken
<07665> (8765)

her bars
<01280>_:

her king
<04428>

and her princes
<08269>

[are] among the Gentiles
<01471>_:

the law
<08451>

[is] no [more]; her prophets
<05030>

also find
<04672> (8804)

no vision
<02377>

from the LORD
<03068>_.

Lamentations 2:14

2:14

Thy prophets
<05030>

have seen
<02372> (8804)

vain
<07723>

and foolish things
<08602>

for thee: and they have not discovered
<01540> (8765)

thine iniquity
<05771>_,

to turn away
<07725> (8687)

thy captivity
<07622> (8675) <07622>_;

but have seen
<02372> (8799)

for thee false
<07723>

burdens
<04864>

and causes of banishment
<04065>_.

Lamentations 2:21-22

2:21

The young
<05288>

and the old
<02205>

lie
<07901> (8804)

on the ground
<0776>

in the streets
<02351>_:

my virgins
<01330>

and my young men
<0970>

are fallen
<05307> (8804)

by the sword
<02719>_;

thou hast slain
<02026> (8804)

[them] in the day
<03117>

of thine anger
<0639>_;

thou hast killed
<02873> (8804)_,

[and] not pitied
<02550> (8804)_.

2:22

Thou hast called
<07121> (8799)

as in a solemn
<04150>

day
<03117>

my terrors
<04032>

round about
<05439>_,

so that in the day
<03117>

of the LORD'S
<03068>

anger
<0639>

none escaped
<06412>

nor remained
<08300>_:

those that I have swaddled
<02946> (8765)

and brought up
<07235> (8765)

hath mine enemy
<0341> (8802)

consumed
<03615> (8765)_.

Lamentations 4:6

4:6

For the punishment of the iniquity
<05771>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

is greater
<01431> (8799)

than the punishment
<02403>

of the sin of Sodom
<05467>_,

that was overthrown
<02015> (8803)

as in a moment
<07281>_,

and no hands
<03027>

stayed
<02342> (8804)

on her. {punishment of the iniquity: or, iniquity}

Lamentations 4:8

4:8

Their visage
<08389>

is blacker
<02821> (8804)

than a coal
<07815>_;

they are not known
<05234> (8738)

in the streets
<02351>_:

their skin
<05785>

cleaveth
<06821> (8804)

to their bones
<06106>_;

it is withered
<03001> (8804)_,

it is become like a stick
<06086>_.

{blacker...: Heb. darker than blackness}

Lamentations 4:12

4:12

The kings
<04428>

of the earth
<0776>_,

and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the world
<08398>_,

would not have believed
<0539> (8689)

that the adversary
<06862>

and the enemy
<0341> (8802)

should have entered
<0935> (8799)

into the gates
<08179>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

Lamentations 4:15

4:15

They cried
<07121> (8804)

unto them, Depart
<05493> (8798)

ye; [it is] unclean
<02931>_;

depart
<05493> (8798)_,

touch
<05060> (8799)

not: when they fled away
<05132> (8804)

and wandered
<05128> (8804)_,

they said
<0559> (8804)

among the heathen
<01471>_,

They shall no more
<03254> (8686)

sojourn
<01481> (8800)

[there]. {it...: or, ye polluted}

Lamentations 4:17

4:17

As for us, our eyes
<05869>

as yet failed
<03615> (8799)

for our vain
<01892>

help
<05833>_:

in our watching
<06836>

we have watched
<06822> (8765)

for a nation
<01471>

[that] could not save
<03467> (8686)

[us].

Lamentations 4:22

4:22

The punishment of thine iniquity
<05771>

is accomplished
<08552> (8804)_,

O daughter
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>_;

he will no more
<03254> (8686)

carry thee away into captivity
<01540> (8687)_:

he will visit
<06485> (8804)

thine iniquity
<05771>_,

O daughter
<01323>

of Edom
<0123>_;

he will discover
<01540> (8765)

thy sins
<02403>_.

{The...: or, Thine iniquity} {discover...: or, carry thee captive for thy sins}
