For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water, because the comforter that should relieve my soul is far from me: my children are desolate, because the enemy prevailed.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
This is why I can't stop crying — tears just keep streaming down my face. The one who's supposed to comfort me and give my soul some relief feels so far away. My people are left with nothing because our enemies won.
