Lamentations 4:14-16
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 Blindly they wandered through the streets,
so defiled with blood
that no one was able
to touch their garments.(A)
15 “Away! Unclean!” people shouted at them;
“Away! Away! Do not touch!”
So they became fugitives and wanderers;
it was said among the nations,
“They shall stay here no longer.”(B)
16 The Lord himself has scattered them;
he will regard them no more;
no honor was shown to the priests,
no favor to the elders.(C)
