Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the LORD.

Verse 9 is found in chapter 2 of Lamentations. Jerusalem’s walls, gates, and defenses have been destroyed, while elders and young people share the same affliction. The scene removes social distinctions and shows an entire community under judgment. The silence and mourning of religious leaders express the magnitude of the crisis.

Ihre Tore liegen tief in der Erde; er hat die Riegel zerbrochen und zunichte gemacht. Ihr König und ihre Fürsten sind unter den Heiden, wo sie das Gesetz nicht üben können und ihre Propheten kein Gesicht vom HERRN haben.
Sus puertas fueron echadas por tierra, destruyó y quebrantó sus cerrojos: Su rey y sus príncipes están entre las gentes donde no hay ley; Sus profetas tampoco hallaron visión de Jehová.
Sus puertas se han hundido en la tierra; él ha destruido y quebrado sus cerrojos. Su rey y sus jefes están entre las naciones; ya no hay ley. Sus profetas tampoco reciben visión de parte de Jehová.
Ses portes sont enfoncées dans la terre; Il en a détruit, rompu les barres. Son roi et ses chefs sont parmi les nations; il n'y a plus de loi. Même les prophètes ne reçoivent aucune vision de l'Eternel.
Le porte di essa sono affondate in terra; Egli ha disfatte, e spezzate le sue sbarre; Il suo re ed i suoi principi sono fra le genti; la Legge non è più, I profeti di essa eziandio non hanno trovata alcuna visione Da parte del Signore
As suas portas caíram por terra; ele destruiu e quebrou os seus ferrolhos; o seu rei e os seus príncipes estão entre os gentios, onde não há lei, nem os seus profetas acham visão alguma do SENHOR.
錫安 的門陷入地裏, 主毀壞,折斷她的門閂。 她的君王和官長都置身列國中,沒有律法; 她的先知也不再從耶和華領受異象。
