Lamentations 1:3

Judah [the people of Judea] has been taken into exile [to Babylon]
under great suffering and bondage.
[2 Kings 25:8–21; 2 Chron. 36:17–21; Jer. 39:1–10; 51:12–30]
She dwells in other countries,
she finds no place of rest.
All her persecutors have overtaken her
in the midst of her distress (distress).
[The third Hebrew letter is: ג – gimel. The character depicts a camel. It often symbolizes endurance; a camel walks through the desert in heat and cold, regardless of circumstances, holding its head high and moving forward. The first word in Hebrew is "exile," which in a way can be symbolized by the camel because it travels long distances to distant countries with the merchants' caravans. In order to survive grief and get through it, one also needs the endurance that the camel symbolizes, because it always takes time, often at least a year, to get through this process.]
