Lamentations 4:16
The presence of the Lord has scattered them; He regards them no more. The priests are shown no honor; the elders find no favor.
The anger of the Lord hath divided them; he will no more regard them: they respected not the persons of the priests, they favoured not the elders.
Note anger: or, face
The Lord’s anger has scattered them. He will not pay attention to them any more. They didn’t respect the persons of the priests. They didn’t favor the elders.
The anger of Jehovah hath scattered them; he will no more regard them: They respected not the persons of the priests, they favored not the elders.
