Lamentations 4:1-6

How is the gold
<02091>
become dim
<06004> (8714)_!
[how] is the most
<02896>
fine gold
<03800>
changed
<08132> (8799)_!
the stones
<068>
of the sanctuary
<06944>
are poured out
<08210> (8691)
in the top
<07218>
of every street
<02351>_.
The precious
<03368>
sons
<01121>
of Zion
<06726>_,
comparable
<05537> (8794)
to fine gold
<06337>_,
how are they esteemed
<02803> (8738)
as earthen
<02789>
pitchers
<05035>_,
the work
<04639>
of the hands
<03027>
of the potter
<03335> (8802)_!
Even the sea monsters
<08577>
draw out
<02502> (8804)
the breast
<07699>_,
they give suck
<03243> (8689)
to their young ones
<01482>_:
the daughter
<01323>
of my people
<05971>
[is become] cruel
<0393>_,
like the ostriches
<03283>
in the wilderness
<04057>_.
{sea...: or, sea calves}
The tongue
<03956>
of the sucking child
<03243> (8802)
cleaveth
<01692> (8804)
to the roof of his mouth
<02441>
for thirst
<06772>_:
the young children
<05768>
ask
<07592> (8804)
bread
<03899>_,
[and] no man breaketh
<06566> (8802)
[it] unto them.
They that did feed
<0398> (8802)
delicately
<04574>
are desolate
<08074> (8738)
in the streets
<02351>_:
they that were brought up
<0539> (8803)
in scarlet
<08438>
embrace
<02263> (8765)
dunghills
<0830>_.
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}
