Lamentations 4:17


Berean Standard Bible (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.


World English Bible (WEB)

Our eyes still fail, looking in vain for our help: In our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save.


Strong's King James

As for us, our eyes{H5869} as yet failed{H3615}{(H8799)} for our vain{H1892} help{H5833}: in our watching{H6836} we have watched{H6822}{(H8765)} for a nation{H1471} that could not save{H3467}{(H8686)} us.


The F.O.G *

Still these eyes of ours failed, For our help evaporated. In our watchtower we have kept watch, Towards a nation that couldn't save us.


The F.O.G Message *


Young's Literal Translation

While we exist—consumed are our eyes for our vain help, In our watch-tower we have watched for a nation that saveth not.
