Lamentations 1:21

שָׁמְע֣וּ כִּ֣י נֶאֱנָחָ֣ה אָ֔נִי אֵ֥ין מְנַחֵ֖ם לִ֑י כָּל אֹיְבַי֙ שָׁמְע֣וּ רָעָתִ֔י שָׂשׂ֕וּ כִּ֥י אַתָּ֖ה עָשִׂ֑יתָ הֵבֵ֣אתָ י֔וֹם קָרָ֖אתָ וְיִֽהְי֥וּ כָמֽוֹנִי׃
shamʿv kiy neʾenaḥah ʾaniy ʾeyn mnaḥem liy kal ʾoybay shamʿv raʿatiy shasv kiy ʾatah ʿashiyta hebeʾta yvom qaraʾta vyihyv kamvoniy
King James Version (KJV)

They have heard that I sigh: there is none to comfort me: all mine enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that thou hast done it: thou wilt bring the day that thou hast called, and they shall be like unto me.

Modern English

They heard my groaning, yet there is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that you have done it. Bring on the day you have announced, and let them be like me.
