Behold I am a stranger, and alone
Amid the pride of Babylon: my race,
The children of captivity, were led
From Judah by thy father in his war,
Mean captives of the sword; and who am I
To stand alone amid thy thousand lords,
And read thee to thy face the words of fear?
Amid the pride of Babylon: my race,
The children of captivity, were led
From Judah by thy father in his war,
Mean captives of the sword; and who am I
To stand alone amid thy thousand lords,
And read thee to thy face the words of fear?
