- My eyes fail because of tears, My spirit is greatly troubled; My heart is poured out on the earth Because of the destruction of the daughter of my people, When little ones and infants faint In the streets of the city.
- They say to their mothers, "Where is grain and wine?" As they faint like a wounded man In the streets of the city, As their life is poured out On their mothers' bosom.
- How shall I admonish you? To what shall I compare you, O daughter of Jerusalem? To what shall I liken you as I comfort you, O virgin daughter of Zion? For your ruin is as vast as the sea; Who can heal you?
- Your prophets have seen for you False and foolish visions; And they have not exposed your iniquity So as to restore you from captivity, But they have seen for you false and misleading oracles.
- All who pass along the way Clap their hands in derision at you; They hiss and shake their heads At the daughter of Jerusalem, "Is this the city of which they said, 'The perfection of beauty, A joy to all the earth'?"

- 我眼中流泪,以致失明,我的心肠扰乱,肝胆涂地,都因我众民遭毁灭,又因孩童和吃奶的在城内街上发昏。
- 那时,他们在城内街上发昏,好像受伤的,在母亲的怀里,将要丧命。对母亲说,谷酒在哪里呢。
- 耶路撒冷的民哪,我可用什么向你证明呢。我可用什么与你相比呢。锡安的民哪,我可拿什么和你比较,好安慰你呢。因为你的裂口大如海,谁能医治你呢。
- 你的先知为你见虚假和愚昧的异象,并没有显露你的罪孽,使你被掳的归回。却为你见虚假的默示和使你被赶出本境的缘故。
- 凡过路的都向你拍掌。他们向耶路撒冷城嗤笑,摇头,说,难道人所称为全美的,称为全地所喜悦的,就是这城麽。
