Lamentations

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

Chapter 1

KJV - Lamentations 1:5

Her adversaries are the chief, her enemies prosper; for the LORD hath afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her children are gone into captivity before the enemy.

Her opponents lead, she has enemies who thrive; God punishes her because of many sins - her kids are captured by the foe.
