Lamentations 4:17

Full Chapter

September 17, 2025

KJV

As for us, our eyes as yet failed for our vain help: in our watching we have watched for a nation [that] could not save [us].

BSB

All the while our eyes were failing as we looked in vain for help. We watched from our towers for a nation that could not save us.

WEB

Our eyes still fail, looking in vain for our help: In our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save.

YLT

While we exist—consumed are our eyes for our vain help, In our watch-tower we have watched for a nation that saveth not.

F.O.G Original

Still these eyes of ours failed, For our help evaporated. In our watchtower we have kept watch, Towards a nation that couldn’t save us.

F.O.G

Still these eyes of ours failed, For our help evaporated. In our watchtower we have kept watch, Towards a nation that couldn’t save us.

F.O.G MSG
