Lamentations 1:5-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
5
Her adversaries have become her masters,
Her enemies are secure;
For the
Lord
has caused her grief
Because of the multitude of her wrongdoings;
Her little ones have gone away
As captives led by the enemy.
6
All of her splendor
Is gone from the daughter of Zion;
Her leaders have become like deer
That have found no pasture,
And they have fled without strength
From the pursuer.
7
In
the days of her affliction and homelessness
Jerusalem remembers all her treasures
That were
hers
since the days of old,
When her people fell into the hand of the adversary
And no one helped her.
The adversaries saw her,
They laughed at her ruin.
8
Jerusalem sinned greatly,
Therefore she has become an object of ridicule.
All who honored her despise her
Because they have seen her nakedness;
Even she herself groans and turns away.
King James Version
Chapter 1
5
Her adversaries are the chief, her enemies prosper; for the
Lord
hath afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her children are gone into captivity before the enemy.
6
And from the daughter of Zion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture, and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.
7
Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths.
8
Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore she is removed: all that honoured her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yea, she sigheth, and turneth backward.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
5
Her adversaries have become her masters;
her enemies are at ease,
for the
Lord
has made her suffer
because of her many transgressions.
Her children have gone away
as captives before the adversary.
6
All the splendor has vanished
from Daughter Zion.
Her leaders are like stags
that find no pasture;
they stumble away exhausted
before the hunter.
7
During the days of her affliction and homelessness
Jerusalem remembers all her precious belongings
that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into the adversary’s hand,
she had no one to help.
The adversaries looked at her,
laughing over her downfall.
8
Jerusalem has sinned grievously;
therefore, she has become an object of scorn.
All who honored her now despise her,
for they have seen her nakedness.
She herself groans and turns away.
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
5
Her oppressors have become her masters,
and her enemies prosper,
for the
Lord
has punished Jerusalem
for her many sins.
Her children have been captured
and taken away to distant lands.
6
All the majesty of beautiful Jerusalem
has been stripped away.
Her princes are like starving deer
searching for pasture.
They are too weak to run
from the pursuing enemy.
7
In the midst of her sadness and wandering,
Jerusalem remembers her ancient splendor.
But now she has fallen to her enemy,
and there is no one to help her.
Her enemy struck her down
and laughed as she fell.
8
Jerusalem has sinned greatly,
so she has been tossed away like a filthy rag.
All who once honored her now despise her,
for they have seen her stripped naked and humiliated.
All she can do is groan
and hide her face.
English Standard Version
Chapter 1
5
Her foes have become the head;
her enemies prosper,
because the
Lord
has afflicted her
for the multitude of her transgressions;
her children have gone away,
captives before the foe.
6
From the daughter of Zion
all her majesty has departed.
Her princes have become like deer
that find no pasture;
they fled without strength
before the pursuer.
7
Jerusalem remembers
in the days of her affliction and wandering
all the precious things
that were hers from days of old.
When her people fell into the hand of the foe,
and there was none to help her,
her foes gloated over her;
they mocked at her downfall.
8
Jerusalem sinned grievously;
therefore she became filthy;
all who honored her despise her,
for they have seen her nakedness;
she herself groans
and turns her face away.
New International Version
Chapter 1
5
Her foes have become her masters;
her enemies are at ease.
The
Lord
has brought her grief
because of her many sins.
Her children have gone into exile,
captive before the foe.
6
All the splendor has departed
from Daughter Zion.
Her princes are like deer
that find no pasture;
in weakness they have fled
before the pursuer.
7
In the days of her affliction and wandering
Jerusalem remembers all the treasures
that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into enemy hands,
there was no one to help her.
Her enemies looked at her
and laughed at her destruction.
8
Jerusalem has sinned greatly
and so has become unclean.
All who honored her despise her,
for they have all seen her naked;
she herself groans
and turns away.
New King James Version
Chapter 1
5
Her adversaries have become the master,
Her enemies prosper;
For the
Lord
has afflicted her
Because of the multitude of her transgressions.
Her children have gone into captivity before the enemy.
6
And from the daughter of Zion
All her splendor has departed.
Her princes have become like deer
That
find no pasture,
That flee without strength
Before the pursuer.
7
In the days of her affliction and roaming,
Jerusalem remembers all her pleasant things
That she had in the days of old.
When her people fell into the hand of the enemy,
With no one to help her,
The adversaries saw her
And
mocked at her downfall.
8
Jerusalem has sinned gravely,
Therefore she has become vile.
All who honored her despise her
Because they have seen her nakedness;
Yes, she sighs and turns away.
