18. Jerusalem had many people.But there was not a person to lead her.Of all the people who grew up there,no one was there to guide her.
19. Troubles came to you in groups of two.No one will feel sorry for you.There was ruin and disaster, great hunger and fighting.No one can comfort you.
20. Your people have become weak.They fall down and lie on every street corner.They are like animals caught in a net.They have felt the full anger of the Lord.They have heard God’s angry shout.
21. So listen to me, poor Jerusalem,you who are drunk but not from wine.
