LXX Lamentations 1:1

Jeremiah Wails Over Jerusalem

LXX:
And it came to pass after Israel was taken captive, and Jerusalem was made desolate, Jeremiah sat down weeping, and he wailed this lamentation over Jerusalem, and he said,

ΑΛΕΦ

How the city being filled with peoples sit alone; she became as a widow, becoming filled among [the] nations; ruling in [the] regions, she became for tribute.

και εγένετο μετά το αιχμαλωτισθήναι τον Ισραήλ και Ιερουσαλήμ ερημωθήναι εκάθισεν Ιερεμίας κλαίων και εθρήνησε τον θρήνον τούτον επί Ιερουσαλήμ και είπεν πως εκάθισε μόνη η πόλις η πεπληθυμμένη λαών εγενήθη ως χήρα πεπληθυμμένη εν έθνεσιν άρχουσα εν χώραις εγενήθη εις φόρον
