Lamentations 2:20-22


ר  Resh

20
See, O Yahweh, and look!
With awhom have You dealt thus?
Should women beat their 1offspring,
The infants who were 2born healthy?
Should cpriest and prophet be killed
In the sanctuary of the Lord?

שׁ  Shin

21
On the ground in the streets
Lie ayoung and old;
My bvirgins and my young men
Have fallen by the sword.
You have killed them in the day of Your anger;
You have slaughtered, cnot sparing.

ת  Tav

22
You called as in the day of an appointed time
My aterrors on every side;
And there was bno one who escaped or survived
In the day of Yahweh’s anger.
Those cwhom I 1gave birth to and reared,
My enemy consumed them.
