"Fire devoured their young men; And their virgins had no marriage-song. "
— Psalms 78:63, American Standard Version
“The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given to marriage.”
“Fire devoured their young men. Their virgins had no wedding song.”
“Fire consumed their young men, and their virgins remained unmarried.”
“Their young men were burned in the fire; and their virgins were not praised in the bride-song.”
“The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given to marriage.”
So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, The tent which he placed among men;
And delivered his strength into captivity, And his glory into the adversary’s hand.
He gave his people over also unto the sword, And was wroth with his inheritance.
Fire devoured their young men; And their virgins had no marriage-song.
Their priests fell by the sword; And their widows made no lamentation.
Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, Like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine.
And he smote his adversaries backward: He put them to a perpetual reproach.
