- 我眼中流淚、以致失明.我的心腸擾亂、肝膽塗地.都因我眾民遭毀滅、又因孩童和喫奶的在城內街上發昏.
- 那時、他們在城內街上發昏、好像受傷的、在母親的懷裡、將要喪命、對母親說、穀酒在那裡呢。
- 耶路撒冷的民哪、我可用甚麼向你證明呢.我可用甚麼與你相比呢.錫安的民哪、我可拿甚麼和你比較、好安慰你呢.因為你的裂口大如海、誰能醫治你呢。
- 你的先知為你見虛假和愚昧的異象、並沒有顯露你的罪孽、使你被擄的歸回.卻為你見虛假的默示、和使你被趕出本境的緣故。
- 凡過路的、都向你拍掌.他們向耶路撒冷城、嗤笑搖頭、說、難道人所稱為全美的.稱為全地所喜悅的、就是這城麼。

- Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
- They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swooned as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul was poured out into their mothers' bosom.
- What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?
- Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.
- All that pass by clap their hands at thee; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city that men call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
