ק Qoph

19 I called to my lovers,(A)
but they betrayed me.
My priests and elders
perished in the city
while searching for food
to keep themselves alive.(B)

ר Resh

20 Lord, see how I am in distress.
I am churning within;(C)
my heart is broken,[a]
for I have been very rebellious.
Outside, the sword takes the children;
inside, there is death.(D)

שׁ Shin

21 People have heard me groaning,(E)
but there is no one to comfort me.
All my enemies have heard of my misfortune;
they are glad that you have caused it.(F)
Bring on the day you have announced,
so that they may become like me.(G)
