Lamentations 2:12

12 They cry to their mothers,
aWhere is bread and wine?”
bas they faint like a wounded man
in the streets of the city,
as their life is poured out
on their mothersbosom.

Lamentations 2:21

21 In the dust of the streets
clie the young and the old;
dmy young women and my young men
have fallen by the sword;
eyou have killed them in the day of your anger,
slaughtering fwithout pity.

Lamentations 4:7-8

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 iNow 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.

Lamentations 5:10

10 jOur skin is hot as an oven
with kthe burning heat of famine.
