Lamentations 4:3-6

Lamentations 4:3-6

[3] draw out  the breast,  they give suck  to their young ones:  the daughter  of my people  is become cruel,  like the ostriches  in the wilderness.  [4] The tongue  of the sucking child  cleaveth  to the roof of his mouth  for thirst:  the young children  ask  bread,  and no man breaketh  it unto them. [5] They that did feed  delicately  are desolate  in the streets:  they that were brought up  in scarlet  embrace  dunghills.  [6] For the punishment of the iniquity  of the daughter  of my people  is greater  than the punishment  of the sin of Sodom,  that was overthrown  as in a moment,  and no hands  stayed  on her.
