Inuka, lia usiku, zamu za usiku zianzapo; mimina moyo wako kama maji mbele za Bwana. Mwinulie yeye mikono yako kwa ajili ya maisha ya watoto wako, ambao wanazimia kwa njaa kwenye kila mwanzo wa barabara.

Lamentations 2:19 in English

Lamentations 2:19 · Berean Standard Bible

Arise, cry out in the night from the first watch of the night.* Pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to Him for the lives of your children who are fainting from hunger on the corner of every street.

Context

17Bwana amefanya lile alilolipanga; ametimiza neno lake aliloliamuru siku za kale. Amekuangusha bila huruma, amewaacha adui wakusimange, ametukuza pembe ya adui yako. 18Mioyo ya watu inamlilia Bwana. Ee ukuta wa Binti Sayuni, machozi yako na yatiririke kama mto usiku na mchana; usijipe nafuu, macho yako yasipumzike. 19Inuka, lia usiku, zamu za usiku zianzapo; mimina moyo wako kama maji mbele za Bwana. Mwinulie yeye mikono yako kwa ajili ya maisha ya watoto wako, ambao wanazimia kwa njaa kwenye kila mwanzo wa barabara. 20“Tazama, Ee Bwana, ufikirie: Ni nani ambaye umepata kumtendea namna hii? Je, wanawake wakule wazao wao, watoto waliowalea? Je, kuhani na nabii auawe mahali patakatifu pa Bwana? 21“Vijana na wazee hujilaza pamoja katika mavumbi ya barabarani, wavulana wangu na wasichana wameanguka kwa upanga. Umewaua katika siku ya hasira yako, umewachinja bila huruma.
