BrTr [And it came to pass, after Israel was taken captive, and Jerusalem made desolate, that Jeremias sat weeping, and lamented with this lamentation over Jerusalem, and said]

LEB   • that was full of people!
• She has become like a widow,
  • once great among the nations!
• Like a woman of nobility in the provinces,
  • she has become a forced laborer.
