Lamentations 3
LAM 3:1 I am the man that hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
LAM 3:2 Me hath he led, and brought into darkness, and not into light.
LAM 3:3 Surely against me hath he turned again and again his hand all the day.
LAM 3:4 My flesh and my skin hath he wasted away, he hath broken my bones.
LAM 3:5 He hath built against me, and encompassed [me] with gall and toil.
LAM 3:6 He hath made me to dwell in dark places as those that have been long dead.
LAM 3:7 He hath hedged me about that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.
LAM 3:8 Even when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
LAM 3:9 He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
LAM 3:10 He is unto me [as] a bear lying in wait, a lion in secret places.
LAM 3:11 He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he hath made me desolate.
LAM 3:12 He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
LAM 3:13 He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.
LAM 3:14 I am become a derision to all my people; their song all the day.
LAM 3:15 He hath sated me with bitterness, he hath made me drunk with wormwood.
LAM 3:16 He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.
LAM 3:17 And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I have forgotten prosperity.
LAM 3:18 And I said, My strength is perished, and my hope in Jehovah.
LAM 3:19 Remember thou mine affliction and my wandering, the wormwood and the gall.
LAM 3:20 My soul hath [them] constantly in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
LAM 3:21 -- This I recall to heart, therefore have I hope.
LAM 3:22 It is of Jehovah's loving-kindness we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not;
LAM 3:23 they are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
LAM 3:24 Jehovah is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
LAM 3:25 Jehovah is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul [that] seeketh him.
LAM 3:26 It is good that one should both wait, and that in silence, for the salvation of Jehovah.
LAM 3:27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth:
LAM 3:28 He sitteth solitary and keepeth silence, because he hath laid it upon him;
LAM 3:29 he putteth his mouth in the dust, if so be there may be hope;
LAM 3:30 he giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him; he is filled full with reproach.
LAM 3:31 For the Lord will not cast off for ever;
LAM 3:32 but if he have caused grief, he will have compassion according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses:
LAM 3:33 for he doth not willingly afflict or grieve the children of men.
LAM 3:34 To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
LAM 3:35 to turn aside the right of a man before the face of the Most High,
LAM 3:36 to wrong a man in his cause, -- will not the Lord see it?
LAM 3:37 Who is he that saith, and there cometh to pass, what the Lord hath not commanded?
LAM 3:38 Out of the mouth of the Most High doth not there proceed evil and good?
LAM 3:39 Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
LAM 3:40 Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Jehovah.
LAM 3:41 Let us lift up our heart with [our] hands unto łGod in the heavens.
LAM 3:42 We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.
LAM 3:43 Thou hast covered thyself with anger, and pursued us; thou hast slain, thou hast not spared.
LAM 3:44 Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that prayer should not pass through.
LAM 3:45 Thou hast made us the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the peoples.
LAM 3:46 All our enemies have opened their mouth against us.
LAM 3:47 Fear and the pit are come upon us, devastation and ruin.
LAM 3:48 Mine eye runneth down with streams of water for the ruin of the daughter of my people.
LAM 3:49 Mine eye poureth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
LAM 3:50 till Jehovah look down and behold from the heavens.
LAM 3:51 Mine eye affecteth my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.
LAM 3:52 They that are mine enemies without cause have chased me sore like a bird.
LAM 3:53 They have cut off my life in a pit, and cast a stone upon me.
LAM 3:54 Waters streamed over my head; I said, I am cut off.
LAM 3:55 I called upon thy name, Jehovah, out of the lowest pit.
LAM 3:56 Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my sighing, at my cry.
LAM 3:57 Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee; thou saidst, Fear not.
LAM 3:58 Lord, thou hast pleaded the cause of my soul, thou hast redeemed my life.
LAM 3:59 Jehovah, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.
LAM 3:60 Thou hast seen all their vengeance, all their imaginations against me.
LAM 3:61 Thou hast heard their reproach, O Jehovah, all their imaginations against me;
LAM 3:62 the lips of those that rise up against me and their meditation against me all the day.
LAM 3:63 Behold thou their sitting down and their rising up: I am their song.
LAM 3:64 Render unto them a recompence, O Jehovah, according to the work of their hands;
LAM 3:65 give them obduracy of heart, thy curse unto them;
LAM 3:66 pursue them in anger, and destroy them from under the heavens of Jehovah.
