Lamentations 5:17
King James VersionSource notes
“For this our heart is faint; for these our eyes are dim.”
Context
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.
20Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, forsake us so long time?
