ગુજરાતીયર્મિયાનો વિલાપ ૧:૧૬
આને લીધે હું રડું છું. તેથી મારી આંખોમાંથી આંસુઓ વહી જાય છે. કેમ કે મને દિલાસો આપનાર તથા મારો જીવ બચાવનાર મારાથી દૂર છે. મારાં સંતાનો નિરાધાર છે, કારણ કે શત્રુઓએ તેમને હરાવ્યાં છે.
हिन्दीविलापगीत १:१६
इन बातों के कारण मैं रोती हूँ; मेरी आँखों से आँसू की धारा बहती रहती है; क्योंकि जिस शान्तिदाता के कारण मेरा जी हरा भरा हो जाता था, वह मुझसे दूर हो गया; मेरे बच्चे अकेले हो गए, क्योंकि शत्रु प्रबल हुआ है।

In context

14“The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand. They are knit together. They have come up on my neck. He made my strength fail. The Lord has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.

15“The Lord has set at nothing all my mighty men within me. He has called a solemn assembly against me to crush my young men. The Lord has trodden the virgin daughter of Judah as in a wine press.

16“For these things I weep. My eye, my eye runs down with water, because the comforter who should refresh my soul is far from me. My children are desolate, because the enemy has prevailed.”

17Zion spreads out her hands. There is no one to comfort her. The LORD has commanded concerning Jacob, that those who are around him should be his adversaries. Jerusalem is among them as an unclean thing.

18“The LORD is righteous, for I have rebelled against his commandment. Please hear all you peoples, and see my sorrow. My virgins and my young men have gone into captivity.
