Lamentations 5:15
King James Version
The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
Lamentations 5:15 in context
13They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.
14The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their musick.
15The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
16The crown is fallen from our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned!
17For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim.
