Isaiah 51:20

20 aYour sons have fainted;
they lie at the head of every street
like an bantelope cin a net;
they are full of the wrath of the Lord,
the rebuke of your God.

Lamentations 2:11-12

11 dMy eyes are spent with weeping;
emy stomach churns;
fmy bile is poured out to the ground
gbecause of the destruction of the daughter of my people,
hbecause infants and babies ifaint
in the streets of the city.
12 They cry to their mothers,
jWhere is bread and wine?”
kas they faint like a wounded man
in the streets of the city,
as their life is poured out
on their mothersbosom.

Lamentations 4:1-9

The Holy Stones Lie Scattered

1 lHow the gold has grown dim,
how the pure gold is changed!
The holy stones lie scattered
mat the head of every street.
2 The precious sons of Zion,
worth their weight in nfine gold,
how they are regarded as oearthen pots,
the work of a potter’s hands!
3 Even jackals offer the breast;
they nurse their young;
but the daughter of my people has become cruel,
like the ostriches in the wilderness.
4 The tongue of the nursing infant psticks
to the roof of its mouth for thirst;
qthe children beg for food,
but no one gives to them.
5 Those who once feasted on delicacies
perish in the streets;
rthose who were brought up in purple
embrace ash heaps.
6 sFor the chastisement
Or iniquity
of the daughter of my people has been greater
than the punishment
Or sin
of Sodom,
vwhich was overthrown in a moment,
and no hands were wrung for her.
The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain

7 Her princes were purer than snow,
whiter than milk;
their bodies were more ruddy than coral,
the beauty of their form
The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain
was like sapphire.
Hebrew lapis lazuli

8 zNow their face is blacker than soot;
they are not recognized in the streets;
their skin has shriveled on their bones;
it has become as dry as wood.
9 Happier were the victims of the sword
than the victims of hunger,
who wasted away, pierced
by lack of the fruits of the field.

Ezekiel 5:10

10Therefore aafathers shall eat their sons in your midst, and sons shall eat their fathers. abAnd I will execute judgments on you, acand any of you who survive I will scatter to all the winds.

Ezekiel 5:16

16when I send against you
Hebrew them
aethe deadly arrows of famine, arrows for destruction, which I will send to destroy you, and when I bring more and more famine upon afyou and break your supply
Hebrew staff
of bread.

Nahum 3:10

10 ahYet she became an exile;
she went into captivity;
aiher infants were dashed in pieces
at the head of every street;
for her honored men ajlots were cast,
akand all her great men were bound in chains.
