Lamentations1:8
8 Jerusalem hath grievously sinned: therefore she is removed: all that honoured her, despise her, , because they have seen her nakedness: yea she sigheth, and turneth backward.
She is carried out of her own Land into an Enemies Countrey, and made an hissing and scorn to those who before reverenced her, in all this God is righteous; for all orders of men have grievously sinned, because they have seen the Lord stripping her of all her blessings, and exposing her to the scorn and reproach of all men as strumpets are exposed.
Marginal references: Heb. become a removing, or a wandring.; Jer. 13.26. Ezek. 16.37. and 23.29.
