For the brokenness of the daughter of my people I am broken; I mourn, dismay has taken hold of me.
For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment hath taken hold on me.
For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I [Jeremiah] hurt; I go around mourning; dismay has taken hold on me.
For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt: I mourn; dismay hath taken hold on me.
Because my people are crushed, I am crushed; darkness and despair overwhelm me.
Over the destruction of the daughter of my people, I am contrite and saddened; astonishment has taken hold of me.
