Lamentations 4:9⥂
_KJV:
[They that be] slain with the sword are better than [they that be] slain with hunger: for these pine away, stricken through for [want of] the fruits of the field.
_BSB:
Those slain by the sword are better off than those who die of hunger, who waste away, pierced with pain because the fields lack produce.
_Hebrew:
טוֹבִ֤ים הָיוּ֙ חַלְלֵי־ חֶ֔רֶב מֵֽחַלְלֵ֖י רָעָ֑ב שֶׁ֣הֵ֤ם יָז֙וּבוּ֙ מְדֻקָּרִ֔ים מִתְּנוּבֹ֖ת שָׂדָֽי׃ ס
