Baruch 4:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁹ For she saw the wrath that came upon you from God,
    and she said:
Listen, you neighbours of Zion,
    God has brought great sorrow upon me;
¹⁰ for I have seen the exile of my sons and daughters,
    which the Everlasting brought upon them.
¹¹ With joy I nurtured them,
    but I sent them away with weeping and sorrow.
