Lamentations 1:6-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
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.
9
Her uncleanness was in her
garment’s
seams;
She did not think of her future.
So she has fallen in an astonishing way;
She has no comforter.
'See,
Lord
, my affliction,
For the enemy has honored himself!'
10
The adversary has stretched out his hand
Over all her precious things,
For she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary,
The ones whom You commanded
That they were not to enter Your congregation.
11
All her people groan, seeking bread;
They have given their treasures for food
To restore their lives.
'See,
Lord
, and look,
For I am despised.'
12
'
Is it
nothing to all you who pass
this
way?
Look and see if there is
any
pain like my pain
Which was inflicted on me,
With which the
Lord
tormented
me
on the day of His fierce anger.
King James Version
Chapter 1
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.
9
Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembereth not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O
Lord
, behold my affliction: for the enemy hath magnified himself.
10
The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her pleasant things: for she hath seen that the heathen entered into her sanctuary, whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.
11
All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to relieve the soul: see, O
Lord
, and consider; for I am become vile.
12
Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow, which is done unto me, wherewith the
Lord
hath afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
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.
9
Her uncleanness stains her skirts.
She never considered her end.
Her downfall was astonishing;
there was no one to comfort her.
Lord
, look on my affliction,
for the enemy boasts.
10
The adversary has seized
all her precious belongings.
She has even seen the nations
enter her sanctuary—
those you had forbidden
to enter your assembly.
11
All her people groan
while they search for bread.
They have traded their precious belongings for food
in order to stay alive.
Lord
, look and see
how I have become despised.
12
Is this nothing to you, all you who pass by?
Look and see!
Is there any pain like mine,
which was dealt out to me,
which the
Lord
made me suffer
on the day of his burning anger?
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
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.
9
She defiled herself with immorality
and gave no thought to her future.
Now she lies in the gutter
with no one to lift her out.
'
Lord
, see my misery,' she cries.
'The enemy has triumphed.'
10
The enemy has plundered her completely,
taking every precious thing she owns.
She has seen foreigners violate her sacred Temple,
the place the
Lord
had forbidden them to enter.
11
Her people groan as they search for bread.
They have sold their treasures for food to stay alive.
'O
Lord
, look,' she mourns,
'and see how I am despised.
12
'Does it mean nothing to you, all you who pass by?
Look around and see if there is any suffering like mine,
which the
Lord
brought on me
when he erupted in fierce anger.
English Standard Version
Chapter 1
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.
9
Her uncleanness was in her skirts;
she took no thought of her future;
therefore her fall is terrible;
she has no comforter.
"O
Lord
, behold my affliction,
for the enemy has triumphed!"
10
The enemy has stretched out his hands
over all her precious things;
for she has seen the nations
enter her sanctuary,
those whom you forbade
to enter your congregation.
11
All her people groan
as they search for bread;
they trade their treasures for food
to revive their strength.
"Look, O
Lord
, and see,
for I am despised."
12
"Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by?
Look and see
if there is any sorrow like my sorrow,
which was brought upon me,
which the
Lord
inflicted
on the day of his fierce anger.
New International Version
Chapter 1
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.
9
Her filthiness clung to her skirts;
she did not consider her future.
Her fall was astounding;
there was none to comfort her.
"Look,
Lord
, on my affliction,
for the enemy has triumphed."
10
The enemy laid hands
on all her treasures;
she saw pagan nations
enter her sanctuary—
those you had forbidden
to enter your assembly.
11
All her people groan
as they search for bread;
they barter their treasures for food
to keep themselves alive.
"Look,
Lord
, and consider,
for I am despised."
12
"Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by?
Look around and see.
Is any suffering like my suffering
that was inflicted on me,
that the
Lord
brought on me
in the day of his fierce anger?
New King James Version
Chapter 1
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.
9
Her uncleanness
is
in her skirts;
She did not consider her destiny;
Therefore her collapse was awesome;
She had no comforter.
“O
Lord
, behold my affliction,
For
the
enemy is exalted!”
10
The adversary has spread his hand
Over all her pleasant things;
For she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary,
Those whom You commanded
Not to enter Your assembly.
11
All her people sigh,
They seek bread;
They have given their valuables for food to restore life.
“See, O
Lord
, and consider,
For I am scorned.”
12
“
Is it
nothing to you, all you who pass by?
Behold and see
If there is any sorrow like my sorrow,
Which has been brought on me,
Which the
Lord
has inflicted
In the day of His fierce anger.
