Lamentations 4:19-21

Complete Jewish Bible

¹⁹ Those who pursued us were swifter
than eagles in the sky.
They chased us over the mountains
and waylaid us in the desert.

²⁰ Adonai’s anointed, our life-breath,
was caught in their pits;
though of him we had said, “Under his protection,
we can live among the nations.”

²¹ Rejoice, be glad, daughter of Edom,
who lives in the land of ‘Utz.
To you too the cup will pass;
you will get drunk and strip yourself naked!
