Lamentations 5:16
King James VersionSource notes
“The crown is fallen our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned!”
Context
13They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.
14The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their musick.
15The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
16The crown is fallen our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned!
17For this our heart is faint; for these our eyes are dim.
18Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.
19Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation.
