Zion’s roads are in mourning; no one comes to the festivals.
All her gates are deserted. Her priests are groaning,
her young women grieving. She is bitter.
(Lamentations 1:4 CEB)

Comments
Certainly the Lord caused her grief because of her many wrong acts.
Her children have gone away, captive before the enemy.
(Lamentations 1:5 CEB)
Her officials are like deer that can’t find pasture.
They have gone away, frail, before the hunter.
(Lamentations 1:6 CEB)
