Because of the lack of food in the city, the people of Jerusalem do not give their children all they need.
# the jackals offer the breast to nurse their cubs
# Even the jackals offer the breast to nurse their cubs
This means that mother jackals feed their baby jackals.
"Even the fierce, wild dogs feed their babies at the breast"
# jackals
# the daughter of my people has become cruel
fierce wild dogs
# the daughter of my people ... like the ostriches in the desert
The people in Jerusalem are compared to ostriches because they are cruel to their children. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
# the daughter of my people has
This is a poetic name for Jerusalem, which is spoken of here as if it were a woman. See how you translated this in [Lamentations 2:11](../02/11.md). Alternate translation: "my people have" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification]])
"the women of my people have become cruel" or "my people have become cruel"
# ostriches
