Lamentations 4:12-20

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>_.
For the sins
<02403>
of her prophets
<05030>_,
[and] the iniquities
<05771>
of her priests
<03548>_,
that have shed
<08210> (8802)
the blood
<01818>
of the just
<06662>
in the midst
<07130>
of her,
They have wandered
<05128> (8804)
[as] blind
<05787>
[men] in the streets
<02351>_,
they have polluted
<01351> (8738)
themselves with blood
<01818>_,
so that men could
<03201> (8799)
not
<03808>
touch
<05060> (8799)
their garments
<03830>_.
{so...: or, in that they could not but touch}
They cried
<07121> (8804)
unto them, Depart
<05493> (8798)
ye; [it is] unclean
<02931>_;
depart
<05493> (8798)_,
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}
The anger
<06440>
of the LORD
<03068>
hath divided
<02505> (8765)
them; he will no more
<03254> (8686)
regard
<05027> (8687)
them: they respected
<05375> (8804)
not the persons
<06440>
of the priests
<03548>_,
they favoured
<02603> (8804)
not the elders
<02205>_.
{anger: or, face}
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].
They hunt
<06679> (8804)
our steps
<06806>_,
that we cannot go
<03212> (8800)
in our streets
<07339>_:
our end
<07093>
is near
<07126> (8804)_,
our days
<03117>
are fulfilled
<04390> (8804)_;
for our end
<07093>
is come
<0935> (8804)_.
Our persecutors
<07291> (8802)
are swifter
<07031>
than the eagles
<05404>
of the heaven
<08064>_:
they pursued
<01814> (8804)
us upon the mountains
<02022>_,
they laid wait
<0693> (8804)
for us in the wilderness
<04057>_.
The breath
<07307>
of our nostrils
<0639>_,
the anointed
<04899>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
was taken
<03920> (8738)
in their pits
<07825>_,
of whom we said
<0559> (8804)_,
Under his shadow
<06738>
we shall live
<02421> (8799)
among the heathen
<01471>_.
