The Lamentations (Of Jeremiah) 1:11-15 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

11. Caph All her people sought their bread with sadness; they have given all their precious things for food to maintain life; see, O Lord, and consider, for I am become vile.

12. Lamed Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see if there is any sorrow like unto my sorrow, which is come unto me because the Lord has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.

13. Mem From upon high he has sent fire into my bones, and it prevails against them; he has spread a net for my feet; he has turned me back; he has made me desolate and always with pain.

14. Nun The yoke of my rebellions is bound in his hand; they are wreathed and come up upon my neck; he has made my strength to fall; the Lord has delivered me into their hands, from whom I am not able to rise up.

15. Samech The Lord has trodden under foot all my mighty men in the midst of me; he has called a company against me to crush my young men; the Lord has trodden the virgin daughter of Judah as in a winepress.
