The Crown Is Fallen from Our Head — Lamentations 5:14–18

    The elders have ceased from the gate, The young men from their music.
LAM 5:14


    The joy of our heart is ceased; Our dance is turned into mourning.
The crown is fallen from our head: Woe unto us! for we have sinned.
LAM 5:15–16


    For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim;
For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate: The foxes walk upon it.
LAM 5:17–18
