Lamentations 4:1-2

Christian Standard Bible

4 How the gold has become tarnished,
the fine gold become dull!
The stones of the temple^[a] lie scattered
at the head of every street.^(A)

² Zion’s precious children—
once worth their weight in pure gold^(B)—
how they are regarded as clay jars,
the work of a potter’s hands!
