Lamentations 4:1-2

The Holy Stones Lie Scattered

1 ^bHow the gold has grown dim,
how the pure gold is changed!
The holy stones lie scattered
^cat the head of every street.
2 The precious sons of Zion,
worth their weight in ^dfine gold,
how they are regarded as ^eearthen pots,
the work of a potter’s hands!

Ezekiel 22:20

20 As one gathers silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into a furnace, ^fto blow the fire on it in order to melt it, so I will gather you ^gin my anger and in my wrath, and I will put you in and melt you.
