Lamentations - ch 3 v 1 - 20
- Aleph. I am the man that see my poverty by the rod of his indignation.
- Aleph. He hath led me, and brought me into darkness, and not into light.
- Aleph. Only against me he hath turned, and turned again his hand all the day.
- Beth. My skin and my flesh he hath made old, he hath broken my bones.
- Beth. He hath built round about me, and he hath compassed me with gall and labour.
- Beth. He hath set me in dark places as those that are dead for ever.
- Ghimel. He hath built against me round about, that I may not get out: he hath made my fetters heavy.
- Ghimel. Yea, and when I cry, and entreat, he hath shut out my prayer.
- Ghimel. He hath shut up my ways with square stones, he hath turned my paths upside down.
- Daleth. He is become to me as a bear lying in wait: as a lion in secret places.
- Daleth. He hath turned aside my paths, and hath broken me in pieces, he hath made me desolate.
- Daleth. He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for his arrows.
- He. He hath shot into my reins the daughters of his quiver.
- He. I am made a derision to all my people, their song all the day long.
- He. He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath inebriated me with wormwood.
- Vau. And he hath broken my teeth one by one, he hath fed me with ashes.
- Vau. And my soul is removed far off from peace, I have forgotten good things.
- Vau. And I said: My end and my hope is perished from the Lord.
- Zain. Remember my poverty, and transgression, the wormwood, and the gall.
- Zain. I will be mindful and remember, and my soul shall languish within me.
