Lamentations 4:5-7

English Standard Version

⁵ Those who once feasted on delicacies
    perish in the streets;
^(A)those who were brought up in purple
    embrace ash heaps.

^6 (B)For the chastisement^[a] of the daughter of my people has been greater
    than the punishment^[b] of Sodom,
^(C)which was overthrown in a moment,
    and no hands were wrung for her.^[c]

⁷ Her princes were purer than snow,
    whiter than milk;
their bodies were more ruddy than coral,
    the beauty of their form^[d] was like sapphire.^[e]
