Lamentations 5:3
We are corphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.
We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.
c:
Psalms 142:3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.
Hosea 14:3 Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
We are all of us without a king, (who is the common father of the country,) we are deprived of thy fatherly care and protection, many young children amongst us are left without an earthly parent.
either our great cities are like widows, wanting magistrates; or, our women that were married are left widows.
