King James Version with Strongs Numbers - Lamentations 1 << | >> 12345 1:1 How doth the city5892 sit3427 solitary0910, {that was} full7227 of people5971! {how} is she become as a widow0490! she {that was} great7227 among the nations1471, {and} princess8282 among the provinces4082, {how} is she become tributary4522! 1:2 She weepeth1058 sore1058 in the night3915, and her tears1832 {are} on her cheeks3895: among all her lovers0157 she hath none to comfort5162 {her}: all her friends7453 have dealt treacherously0898 with her, they are become her enemies0341. 1:3 Judah3063 is gone into captivity1540 because of affliction6040, and because of great7230 servitude5656: she dwelleth3427 among the heathen1471, she findeth4672 no rest4494: all her persecutors7291 overtook5381 her between the straits4712. 1:4 The ways1870 of Zion6726 do mourn0057, because none come0935 to the solemn feasts4150: all her gates8179 are desolate8074: her priests3548 sigh0584, her virgins1330 are afflicted3013, and she {is} in bitterness4843. 1:5 Her adversaries6862 are the chief7218, her enemies0341 prosper7951; for the LORD3068 hath afflicted3013 her for the multitude7230 of her transgressions6588: her children5768 are gone1980 into captivity7628 before6440 the enemy6862. 1:6 And from the daughter1323 of Zion6726 all her beauty1926 is departed3318: her princes8269 are become like harts0354 {that} find4672 no pasture4829, and they are gone3212 without strength3581 before6440 the pursuer7291. 1:7 Jerusalem3389 remembered2142 in the days3117 of her affliction6040 and of her miseries4788 all her pleasant things4262 that she had in the days3117 of old6924, when her people5971 fell5307 into the hand3027 of the enemy6862, and none did help5826 her: the adversaries6862 saw7200 her, {and} did mock7832 at her sabbaths4868. 1:8 Jerusalem3389 hath grievously2399 sinned2398; therefore she is removed5206: all that honoured3513 her despise2107 her, because they have seen7200 her nakedness6172: yea, she sigheth0584, and turneth7725 backward0268. 1:9 Her filthiness2932 {is} in her skirts7757; she remembereth2142 not her last end0319; therefore she came down3381 wonderfully6382: she had no comforter5162. O LORD3068, behold7200 my affliction6040: for the enemy0341 hath magnified1431 {himself}. 1:10 The adversary6862 hath spread out6566 his hand3027 upon all her pleasant things4261: for she hath seen7200 {that} the heathen1471 entered0935 into her sanctuary4720, whom thou didst command6680 {that} they should not enter0935 into thy congregation6951. 1:11 All her people5971 sigh0584, they seek1245 bread3899; they have given5414 their pleasant things4261-4262 for meat0400 to relieve7725 the soul5315: see7200, O LORD3068, and consider5027; for I am become vile2151. 1:12 {Is it} nothing to you, all ye that pass5674 by1870? behold5027, and see7200 if there be3426 any sorrow4341 like unto my sorrow4341, which is done5953 unto me, wherewith the LORD3068 hath afflicted3013 {me} in the day3117 of his fierce2740 anger0639. 1:13 From above4791 hath he sent7971 fire0784 into my bones6106, and it prevaileth7287 against them: he hath spread6566 a net7568 for my feet7272, he hath turned7725 me back0268: he hath made5414 me desolate8074 {and} faint1739 all the day3117. 1:14 The yoke5923 of my transgressions6588 is bound8244 by his hand3027: they are wreathed8276, {and} come up5927 upon my neck6677: he hath made my strength3581 to fall3782, the Lord0136 hath delivered5414 me into {their} hands3027, {from whom} I am not able3201 to rise up6965. 1:15 The Lord0136 hath trodden under foot5541 all my mighty0047 {men} in the midst7130 of me: he hath called7121 an assembly4150 against me to crush7665 my young men0970: the Lord0136 hath trodden1869 the virgin1330, the daughter1323 of Judah3063, {as} in a winepress1660. 1:16 For these {things} I weep1058; mine eye5869, mine eye5869 runneth down3381 with water4325, because the comforter5162 that should relieve7725 my soul5315 is far7368 from me: my children1121 are desolate8074, because the enemy0341 prevailed1396. 1:17 Zion6726 spreadeth forth6566 her hands3027, {and there is} none to comfort5162 her: the LORD3068 hath commanded6680 concerning Jacob3290, {that} his adversaries6862 {should be} round about5439 him: Jerusalem3389 is as a menstruous woman5079 among them. 1:18 The LORD3068 is righteous6662; for I have rebelled4784 against his commandment6310: hear8085, I pray you, all people5971, and behold7200 my sorrow4341: my virgins1330 and my young men0970 are gone1980 into captivity7628. 1:19 I called7121 for my lovers0157, {but} they deceived7411 me: my priests3548 and mine elders2205 gave up the ghost1478 in the city5892, while they sought1245 their meat0400 to relieve7725 their souls5315. 1:20 Behold7200, O LORD3068; for I {am} in distress6887: my bowels4578 are troubled2560; mine heart3820 is turned2015 within7130 me; for I have grievously4784 rebelled4784: abroad2351 the sword2719 bereaveth7921, at home1004 {there is} as death4194. 1:21 They have heard8085 that I sigh0584: {there is} none to comfort5162 me: all mine enemies0341 have heard8085 of my trouble7451; they are glad7797 that thou hast done6213 {it}: thou wilt bring0935 the day3117 {that} thou hast called7121, and they shall be like3644 unto me. 1:22 Let all their wickedness7451 come0935 before6440 thee; and do5953 unto them, as thou hast done5953 unto me for all my transgressions6588: for my sighs0585 {are} many7227, and my heart3820 {is} faint1742.
