Lamentations 1
How the city sits solitary, that was full of people! She has become as a widow, who was great among the nations! She who was a princess among the provinces has become a slave!

How has the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger! He has cast the beauty of Israel down from heaven to the earth, and hasn’t remembered his footstool in the day of his anger.
Lamentations 3
I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
Lamentations 4
How the gold has become dim! The most pure gold has changed! The stones of the sanctuary are poured out at the head of every street.

Remember, Yahweh, what has come on us. Look, and see our reproach.
