ר Resh
20 See, O Yahweh, and look!
With whom have You dealt thus?
Should women eat their offspring,
The infants who were born healthy?
Should priest and prophet be killed
In the sanctuary of the Lord?
שׁ Shin
21 On the ground in the streets
Lie young and old;
My virgins and my young men
Have fallen by the sword.
You have killed them in the day of Your anger;
You have slaughtered, not sparing.
ת Tav
22 You called as in the day of an appointed time
My terrors on every side;
And there was no one who escaped or survived
In the day of Yahweh’s anger.
Those whom I gave birth to and reared,
My enemy consumed them.
