Chapters

Lamentations 1

How lonely lies the city, once so full of people! She who was great among the nations has become a widow. The princess of the provinces has become a slave.

Lamentations 2

How the Lord has covered the Daughter of Zion with the cloud of His anger! He has cast the glory of Israel from heaven to earth. He has abandoned His footstool in the day of His anger.

Lamentations 3

I am the man who has seen affliction under the rod of God’s wrath.

Lamentations 4

How the gold has become tarnished, the pure gold has become dull! The gems of the temple lie scattered on every street corner.

Lamentations 5

Remember, O LORD, what has happened to us. Look and see our disgrace!
