Baruch 4:16

16 It took away the widow's dearly loved sons and deprived the lonely woman of her daughters.

Baruch 4:16 In-Context

14 Neighbors of Zion, come! Remember the exile my sons and daughters suffered, brought on them by the eternal one.
15 God brought a nation from far away against them, a nation that is shameless and speaks a strange language, that showed no respect for the elderly or pity for the child.
16 It took away the widow's dearly loved sons and deprived the lonely woman of her daughters.
17 But how am I able to help you?
18 The one who brought the horrible things on you will rescue you from your enemies' grasp.
