Lamentations 1:13-15
Holman Christian Standard Bible
מ Mem
13 He sent fire from heaven(A) into my bones;
He made it descend.[a](B)
He spread a net for my feet(C)
and turned me back.
He made me desolate,
sick all day long.
נ Nun
14 My transgressions have been formed into a yoke,[b][c](D)
fastened together by His hand;
they have been placed on my neck,
and the Lord has broken my strength.
He has handed me over
to those I cannot withstand.
ס Samek
15 The Lord has rejected(E)
all the mighty men within me.
He has summoned an army[d] against me
to crush my young warriors.
The Lord has trampled Virgin Daughter Judah(F)
like grapes in a winepress.(G)

13 “From above He has sent fire into my bones,
And it overpowered them;
He has (A)spread a net for my feet
And turned me back;
He has made me desolate
And faint all the day.
14 “The(B) yoke of my transgressions was [a]bound;
They were woven together by His hands,
And thrust upon my neck.
He made my strength fail;
The Lord delivered me into the hands of those whom I am not able to withstand.
15 “The Lord has trampled underfoot all my mighty men in my midst;
He has called an assembly against me
To crush my young men;
(C)The Lord trampled as in a winepress
The virgin daughter of Judah.
