A Lament over Zion
Oh that my head were waters
And my eyes a fountain of tears,
That I might weep day and night
For the slain of the daughter of my people!
Oh that my head were waters
And my eyes a fountain of tears,
That I might weep day and night
For the slain of the daughter of my people!
«Хто дасть мені у пустині притулок подорожніх? Я покину тоді народ мій і піду геть від нього, бо всі вони перелюбники, зрадників зграя.
Oh that I had in the desert
A wayfarers’ lodging place;
That I might leave my people
And go from them!
For all of them are adulterers,
An assembly of treacherous men.

And every neighbor goes about as a slanderer.

They have taught their tongue to speak lies;
They weary themselves committing iniquity.

For what else can I do, because of the daughter of My people?

Нагострена стріла — язик їхній, він тільки про обман говорить. Мирно із своїм сусідою розмовляють своїми устами, а в серці своїм засідку готують.
“Their tongue is a deadly arrow;
It speaks deceit;
With his mouth one speaks peace to his neighbor,
But inwardly he sets an ambush for him.

Над горами здійму плач і ридання та по пасовиськах у пустині жалобну пісню: вони бо випалені, ніхто там не проходить, ревіння худоби більш не чути. Від птаха у небі і до звіря — усе порозбігалось, повтікало.
“For the mountains I will take up a weeping and wailing,
And for the pastures of the wilderness a dirge,
Because they are laid waste so that no one passes through,
And the lowing of the cattle is not heard;
Both the birds of the sky and the beasts have fled; they are gone.

To cut off the children from the streets,
The young men from the town squares.

And like the sheaf after the reaper,
But no one will gather them.’”
