Lamentations 4:6-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 4
6
For the wrongdoing of the daughter of my people
Is greater than the sin of Sodom,
Which was overthrown as in a moment,
And no hands were turned toward her.
7
Her consecrated ones were purer than snow,
They shined more than milk;
They were more ruddy
in
body than pearls of coral,
Their form
was like
lapis lazuli.
8
Their appearance is darker than soot,
They are not recognized in the streets;
Their skin is shriveled on their bones,
It is dry, it has become like wood.
King James Version
Chapter 4
6
For the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands stayed on her.
7
Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire:
8
Their visage is blacker than a coal; they are not known in the streets: their skin cleaveth to their bones; it is withered, it is become like a stick.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 4
6
The punishment of my dear people
is greater than that of Sodom,
which was overthrown in an instant
without a hand laid on it.
7
Her dignitaries were brighter than snow,
whiter than milk;
their bodies were more ruddy than coral,
their appearance like lapis lazuli.
8
Now they appear darker than soot;
they are not recognized in the streets.
Their skin has shriveled on their bones;
it has become dry like wood.
New Living Translation
Chapter 4
6
The guilt of my people
is greater than that of Sodom,
where utter disaster struck in a moment
and no hand offered help.
7
Our princes once glowed with health —
brighter than snow, whiter than milk.
Their faces were as ruddy as rubies,
their appearance like fine jewels.
8
But now their faces are blacker than soot.
No one recognizes them in the streets.
Their skin sticks to their bones;
it is as dry and hard as wood.
English Standard Version
Chapter 4
6
For the chastisement of the daughter of my people has been greater
than the punishment of Sodom,
which was overthrown in a moment,
and no hands were wrung for her.
7
Her princes were purer than snow,
whiter than milk;
their bodies were more ruddy than coral,
the beauty of their form was like sapphire.
8
Now their face is blacker than soot;
they are not recognized in the streets;
their skin has shriveled on their bones;
it has become as dry as wood.
New International Version
Chapter 4
6
The punishment of my people
is greater than that of Sodom,
which was overthrown in a moment
without a hand turned to help her.
7
Their princes were brighter than snow
and whiter than milk,
their bodies more ruddy than rubies,
their appearance like lapis lazuli.
8
But now they are blacker than soot;
they are not recognized in the streets.
Their skin has shriveled on their bones;
it has become as dry as a stick.
New King James Version
Chapter 4
6
The punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people
Is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom,
Which was overthrown in a moment,
With no hand to help her!
7
Her Nazirites were brighter than snow
And whiter than milk;
They were more ruddy in body than rubies,
Like
sapphire in their appearance.
8
Now
their appearance is blacker than soot;
They go unrecognized in the streets;
Their skin clings to their bones,
It has become as dry as wood.
