Lamentations 4:9

Those slain by the sword are better off than those who die of hunger, who waste away, pierced with pain because the fields lack produce.

They that be slain with the sword are better than they that be slain with hunger: for these pine away, stricken through for want of the fruits of the field.

Note pine…: Heb. flow out

Those who are killed with the sword are better than those who are killed with hunger; for these pine away, stricken through, for lack of the fruits of the field.

They that are slain with the sword are better than they that are slain with hunger; For these pine away, stricken through, for want of the fruits of the field.
