4 The tongue of the suckling adheres to his palate for thirst; the infants ask bread and no one spreads to them;
5 they who ate delicately desolate in the outways; those entrusted with scarlet embrace dunghills.
6 And the perversity of the daughter of my people greatens above the sin of Sodom - overturned as in a blink and no hands writhed over her.
7 Her Separatists were purified as snow - dazzling whiter than milk; their bones more reddened than pearls; their separatism of sapphire:
8 their form becomes darker than darkness - not recognized in the outways; their skin adheres to their bones - withers; becomes as wood.
9 Those pierced with the sword are better than those pierced with famine; for they flow away stabbed because of the produce of the field.
10 The hands of the mercied women stew their own children; they chew them in the breech of the daughter of my people.
