10 Yet she was carried away,
She went into captivity;
aHer young children also were dashed to pieces
bAt the head of every street;
They ccast lots for her honorable men,
And all her great men were bound in chains.

12 All your strongholds are afig trees with ripened figs:
If they are shaken,
They fall into the mouth of the eater.

They fall into the mouth of the eater.
13 Surely, ayour people in your midst are women!
The gates of your land are wide open for your enemies;
Fire shall devour the bbars of your gates.
The gates of your land are wide open for your enemies;
Fire shall devour the bbars of your gates.
14 Draw your water for the siege!
aFortify your strongholds!
Go into the clay and tread the mortar!
Make strong the brick kiln!
aFortify your strongholds!
Go into the clay and tread the mortar!
Make strong the brick kiln!
