Lamentations 4:17⥂
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.
Hebrew:
עוֹדֵ֙ינוּ֙ תִּכְלֶ֣ינָה עֵינֵ֔ינוּ אֶל־ עֶזְרָתֵ֖נוּ הָ֑בֶל בְּצִפִּיָּתֵ֣נוּ צִפִּ֔ינוּ אֶל־ גּ֖וֹי לֹ֥א יוֹשִֽׁעַ׃ ס
