Lamentaciones 4

Finsterer denn Schwärze ist jetzt ihre Gestalt. Man erkennt sie auf den Gassen nicht, ihre Haut hängt fest an ihrem Gebein, verdorrt war es wie Holz.

Oscura más que la negrura es la forma de ellos; no los conocen por las calles: su piel está pegada á sus huesos, seca como un palo.

Their visage is blacker than a coal; they are not known in the streets: their skin cleaveth to their bones; it is withered, it is become like a stick.

Their appearance is blacker than a coal. They are not known in the streets. Their skin clings to their bones. It is withered. It has become like wood.
