Lamentations 1:6

וַיֵּצֵ֞א מִן־בַּת־צִיּ֗וֹן כָּל־הֲדָרָהּ֙ הָי֣וּ שָׂרֶ֔יהָ כְּאַיָּלִ֖ים לֹֽא־מָצְא֣וּ מִרְעֶ֑ה וַיֵּֽלְכ֣וּ בְלֹא כֹ֔חַ לִפְנֵ֖י רוֹדֵֽף׃
vayeṣeʾ min-bat-ṣiyvon kal-hadarah hayv shareyha kʾayaliym loʾ-maṣʾv mirʿeh vayelkv bloʾ koḥa lipney rvodef
King James Version (KJV)

And from the daughter of Zion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture, and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.

Modern English

From the daughter of Zion all her splendor has departed; her princes have become like deer that find no pasture; they fled without strength before the pursuer.
