Lamentations 1:16-17 For these things, I am weeping, ⌊my eyes flow with tears⌋;* because a comforter is far from me, one to restore my life. My sons are desolate because the enemy has prevailed.

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ For these things, I am weeping, _⌊my eyes flow with tears_⌋;* because a comforter is far from me, one to restore my life. My sons are desolate because the enemy has prevailed. ¹⁷ Zion stretches out her hands; there is no one to comfort her. Yahweh has commanded against Jacob, that those surrounding him* should be his enemies; Jerusalem has become a defilement among them.
