Great once among the nations, a princess of provinces, she is now a bonded colony. She weeps, weeps throughout the nights; tears upon her cheek. Among all her companions none is there to console her; all her lovers have betrayed her, turned into enemies against her. Judah is gone into exile under oppression, oppression and the harshness of her labor. Among the nations she sits, finding no place of rest; all who pursued her have seized her, in the narrow places. Zion's streets are grieving - festive times, yet none arrive. Every gate of hers lies desolate, her priests groan, her maidens are downcast, and she - her life is bitter. Her adversaries now stand as head of this beast, her enemies at ease, for the LORD has made her grieve for all her crimes. Her little children went away captive before the foe. Vanished from daughter Zion - all her honor gone. Her princes have become like stags that find no pasture, going powerless before those who pursue. Jerusalem remembers, in her days of oppression and wandering, all those she once treasured, who were, then; how her people fell by the adversaries' hands with none to help her. These enemies behold her now, and laugh at what has ceased in her. Jerusalem has sinned - she sinned, and thus she is become an outcast. All who once honored her now abase her: they have seen her nakedness; now she too is groaning, and sits apart. Uncleanness stains her skirts; she forgot what her end would be. Her collapse came startlingly; none console her. \"LORD, behold this oppression; the enemy grew strong.\" An adversary has stretched his hand over all her treasured ones. The nations beheld her, they entered her Temple - those that You commanded must never enter among Your people. All her people groan: they seek after bread. They surrendered their cherished ones for bread, that they might revive their souls - \"Look on this, LORD, behold - I am brought low. \"May this never befall you, all you who pass my way. Look now and behold - is there any pain like mine? Like that, which was dealt to me, the sorrow the LORD sent upon me, on the day His rage burned? From on high He sent down fire, into my bones, and shattered them all. He spread a net at my feet, drove me backward. He left me desolate, all the day, ailing. \"The yoke of my offenses was bound together, the cords twisted in His hand, were lifted to my neck, and brought down my strength. The LORD has delivered me into the hands of one I cannot rise from. He flung aside all my mighty ones - the LORD in my midst. He summoned the host primed to crush my young men. The LORD trod red the wine-press of the virgin daughter Judah." } ], "footer": [] } }, "links": [ { "rel": "parent", "title": "Koren Shalem Siddur", "href": "/siddur/koren-shalem.json" }, { "rel": "prev", "title": "Ruth", "href": "/siddur/koren-shalem/1416-1417-1244-1245-megillot-ruth.json" }, { "rel": "next", "title": "Lamentations (Eikha)", "href": "/siddur/koren-shalem/1420-1421-1248-1249-megillot-lamentations-eikha.json" } ] }
