Lamentations 1:15
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 All my valiant warriors
my Lord has cast away;
He proclaimed a feast against me
to crush my young men;
My Lord has trodden in the wine press
virgin daughter Judah.
Lamentations 5:11-14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 Women are raped in Zion,
young women in the cities of Judah;(A)
12 Princes have been hanged by them,
elders shown no respect.(B)
13 Young men carry millstones,
boys stagger under loads of wood;
14 The elders have abandoned the gate,[a]
the young men their music.
