Lamentations 1 - King James Bible with Strong Numbers

¹ H5892How doth the cityH3427sit[H8804] H910solitaryH7227, that was fullH5971of peopleH490! how is she become as a widowH7227! she that was greatH1471among the nationsH8282, and princessH4082among the provincesH4522, how is she become tributary!

² H1058She weepeth[H8799] H1058sore[H8800] H3915in the nightH1832, and her tearsH3895are on her cheeksH157: among all her lovers[H8802] H5162she hath none to comfort[H8764] H7453her : all her friendsH898have dealt treacherously[H8804] H341with her, they are become her enemies[H8802] .

³ H3063JudahH1540is gone into captivity[H8804] H6040because of afflictionH7230, and because of greatH5656servitudeH3427: she dwelleth[H8804] H1471among the heathenH4672, she findeth[H8804] H4494no restH7291: all her persecutors[H8802] H5381overtook[H8689] H4712her between the straits.

⁴ H1870The waysH6726of ZionH57do mournH935, because none come[H8802] H4150to the solemn feastsH8179: all her gatesH8074are desolate[H8802] H3548: her priestsH584sigh[H8737] H1330, her virginsH3013are afflicted[H8737] H4843, and she is in bitterness[H8804] .

⁵ H6862Her adversariesH7218are the chiefH341, her enemies[H8802] H7951prosper[H8804] H3068; for the LORDH3013hath afflicted[H8689] H7230her for the multitudeH6588of her transgressionsH5768: her childrenH1980are gone[H8804] H7628into captivityH6440beforeH6862the enemy.

⁶ H1323And from the daughterH6726of ZionH1926all her beautyH3318is departed[H8799] H8269: her princesH354are become like hartsH4672that find[H8804] H4829no pastureH3212, and they are gone[H8799] H3581without strengthH6440beforeH7291the pursuer[H8802] .

⁷ H3389JerusalemH2142remembered[H8804] H3117in the daysH6040of her afflictionH4788and of her miseriesH4262all her pleasant thingsH3117that she had in the daysH6924of oldH5971, when her peopleH5307fell[H8800] H3027into the handH6862of the enemyH5826, and none did help[H8802] H6862her: the adversariesH7200saw[H8804] H7832her, and did mock[H8804] H4868at her sabbaths.

⁸ H3389JerusalemH2399hath grievouslyH2398sinned[H8804] H5206; therefore she is removedH3513: all that honoured[H8764] H2107her despise[H8689] H7200her, because they have seen[H8804] H6172her nakednessH584: yea, she sigheth[H8738] H7725, and turneth[H8799] H268backward.

⁹ H2932Her filthinessH7757is in her skirtsH2142; she remembereth[H8804] H319not her last endH3381; therefore she came down[H8799] H6382wonderfullyH5162: she had no comforter[H8764] H3068. O LORDH7200, behold[H8798] H6040my afflictionH341: for the enemy[H8802] H1431hath magnified[H8689]  himself .

¹⁰ H6862The adversaryH6566hath spread out[H8804] H3027his handH4261upon all her pleasant thingsH7200: for she hath seen[H8804] H1471that the heathenH935entered[H8804] H4720into her sanctuaryH6680, whom thou didst command[H8765] H935that they should not enter[H8799] H6951into thy congregation.

¹¹ H5971All her peopleH584sigh[H8737] H1245, they seek[H8764] H3899breadH5414; they have given[H8804] H4261their pleasant things[H8675] H4262 H400for meatH7725to relieve[H8687] H5315the soulH7200: see[H8798] H3068, O LORDH5027, and consider[H8685] H2151; for I am become vile[H8802] .

¹² H5674Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass[H8802] H1870byH5027? behold[H8685] H7200, and see[H8798] H3426if there beH4341any sorrowH4341like unto my sorrowH5953, which is done[H8776] H3068unto me, wherewith the LORDH3013hath afflicted[H8689] H3117me in the dayH2740of his fierceH639anger.

¹³ H4791From aboveH7971hath he sent[H8804] H784fireH6106into my bonesH7287, and it prevaileth[H8799] H6566against them: he hath spread[H8804] H7568a netH7272for my feetH7725, he hath turned[H8689] H268me backH5414: he hath made[H8804] H8074me desolate[H8802] H1739and faintH3117all the day.

¹⁴ H5923The yokeH6588of my transgressionsH8244is bound[H8738] H3027by his handH8276: they are wreathed[H8691] H5927, and come up[H8804] H6677upon my neckH3581: he hath made my strengthH3782to fall[H8689] H136, the LordH5414hath delivered[H8804] H3027me into their handsH3201, from whom I am not able[H8799] H6965to rise up[H8800] .

¹⁵ H136The LordH5541hath trodden under foot[H8765] H47all my mightyH7130men in the midstH7121of me: he hath called[H8804] H4150an assemblyH7665against me to crush[H8800] H970my young menH136: the LordH1869hath trodden[H8804] H1330the virginH1323, the daughterH3063of JudahH1660, as in a winepress.

¹⁶ H1058For these things I weep[H8802] H5869; mine eyeH5869, mine eyeH3381runneth down[H8802] H4325with waterH5162, because the comforter[H8764] H7725that should relieve[H8688] H5315my soulH7368is far[H8804] H1121from me: my childrenH8074are desolate[H8802] H341, because the enemy[H8802] H1396prevailed[H8804] .

¹⁷ H6726ZionH6566spreadeth forth[H8765] H3027her handsH5162, and there is none to comfort[H8764] H3068her: the LORDH6680hath commanded[H8765] H3290concerning JacobH6862, that his adversariesH5439should be round aboutH3389him: JerusalemH5079is as a menstruous woman among them.

¹⁸ H3068The LORDH6662is righteousH4784; for I have rebelled[H8804] H6310against his commandmentH8085: hear[H8798] H5971, I pray you, all peopleH7200, and behold[H8798] H4341my sorrowH1330: my virginsH970and my young menH1980are gone[H8804] H7628into captivity.

¹⁹ H7121I called[H8804] H157for my lovers[H8764] H7411, but they deceived[H8765] H3548me: my priestsH2205and mine eldersH1478gave up the ghost[H8804] H5892in the cityH1245, while they sought[H8765] H400their meatH7725to relieve[H8686] H5315their souls.

²⁰ H7200Behold[H8798] H3068, O LORDH6887; for I am in distress[H8804] H4578: my bowelsH2560are troubled[H8777] H3820; mine heartH2015is turned[H8738] H7130withinH4784me; for I have grievously[H8800] H4784rebelled[H8804] H2351: abroadH2719the swordH7921bereaveth[H8765] H1004, at homeH4194there is as death.

²¹ H8085They have heard[H8804] H584that I sigh[H8737] H5162: there is none to comfort[H8764] H341me: all mine enemies[H8802] H8085have heard[H8804] H7451of my troubleH7797; they are glad[H8804] H6213that thou hast done[H8804] H935it : thou wilt bring[H8689] H3117the dayH7121that thou hast called[H8804] H3644, and they shall be like unto me.

²² H7451Let all their wickednessH935come[H8799] H6440beforeH5953thee; and do[H8778] H5953unto them, as thou hast done[H8782] H6588unto me for all my transgressionsH585: for my sighsH7227are manyH3820, and my heartH1742is faint.
