Lamentations

Poems mourning the fall of Jerusalem and expressing hope in God's mercy.

Chapter 1

KJV - Lamentations 1:4

The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn feasts: all her gates are desolate: her priests sigh, her virgins are afflicted, and she is in bitterness.

Zion's paths are sad since no one attends the important celebrations. All her doors are empty. Her priests are sad, her young girls are hurt, and she feels very bitter.
