Lamentations 1:3 in Context — Lamentations 1
1 Como se senta solitária a cidade que era tão populosa! A grande entre as nações tornou-se como viúva, a senhora de províncias passou a ser escrava.
2 Amargamente chora na noite, suas lágrimas em seu rosto; entre todos os seus amantes não há quem a console; todos os seus amigos a traíram, inimigos se tornaram.
3 Judá foi ao cativeiro com aflição e grande servidão; ela habita entre as nações, mas não acha descanso; todos os seus perseguidores a alcançam em meio ao aperto.
4 Os caminhos de Sião estão em pranto, pois ninguém vem aos festivais; todas as suas portas estão desertas, seus sacerdotes gemem, suas virgens se afligem, e ela sofre de amargura.
5 Seus oponentes estão no comando, seus inimigos prosperam; pois o SENHOR a afligiu por causa das suas muitas transgressões; suas crianças foram em cativeiro adiante do adversário.
