Lamentations 5:13
11 Women have been ravished in Zion, virgins in the cities of Judah.
12 Princes have been hung up by their hands; elders receive no respect.
Young men toil at millstones; boys stagger under loads of wood.
14 The elders have left the city gate; the young men have stopped their music.
15 Joy has left our hearts; our dancing has turned to mourning.
