Lamentations 2:21-22

Christian Standard Bible

²¹ Both young and old
are lying on the ground in the streets.
My young women and young men
have fallen by the sword.
You have killed them in the day of your anger,
slaughtering without compassion.^(A)

²² You summon those who terrorize me^[a] on every side,^(B)
as if for an appointed festival day;
on the day of the Lord’s anger
no one escaped or survived.
My enemy has destroyed
those I nurtured^[b] and reared.
