Lamentations 2:11-13

11 ^aMy eyes are spent with weeping;
^bmy stomach churns;
^cmy bile is poured out to the ground
^dbecause of the destruction of the daughter of my people,
^ebecause infants and babies ^ffaint
in the streets of the city.
12 They cry to their mothers,
^g“Where is bread and wine?”
^has they faint like a wounded man
in the streets of the city,
as their life is poured out
on their mothers’ bosom.
13 What can I say for you, ⁱto what compare you,
O daughter of Jerusalem?
^jWhat can I liken to you, that I may comfort you,
O virgin daughter of Zion?
^kFor your ruin is vast as the sea;
who can heal you?
