Lamentations - ch 3 v 41 - 60
- We lift up our heart on the hands unto God in the heavens.
- We -- we have transgressed and rebelled, Thou -- Thou hast not forgiven.
- Thou hast covered Thyself with anger, And dost pursue us; Thou hast slain -- Thou hast not pitied.
- Thou hast covered Thyself with a cloud, So that prayer doth not pass through.
- Offscouring and refuse Thou dost make us In the midst of the peoples.
- Opened against us their mouth have all our enemies.
- Fear and a snare hath been for us, Desolation and destruction.
- Rivulets of water go down my eye, For the destruction of the daughter of my people.
- Mine eye is poured out, And doth not cease without intermission,
- Till Jehovah looketh and seeth from the heavens,
- My eye affecteth my soul, Because of all the daughters of my city.
- Hunted me sore as a bird have my enemies without cause.
- They have cut off in a pit my life, And they cast a stone against me.
- Flowed have waters over my head, I have said, I have been cut off.
- I called Thy name, O Jehovah, from the lower pit.
- My voice Thou hast heard, Hide not Thine ear at my breathing -- at my cry.
- Thou hast drawn near in the day I call Thee, Thou hast said, Fear not.
- Thou hast pleaded, O Lord, the pleadings of my soul, Thou hast redeemed my life.
- Thou hast seen, O Jehovah, my overthrow, Judge Thou my cause.
- Thou hast seen all their vengeance, All their thoughts of me.
