Lamentations 3:40-54

40Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Jehovah.41Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.42We have transgressed and have rebelled; thou hast not pardoned.43Thou hast covered with anger and pursued us; thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.44Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.45Thou hast made us an offscouring and refuse in the midst of the peoples.46All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.47Fear and the pit are come upon us, devastation and destruction.48Mine eye runneth down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.49Mine eye poureth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,50Till Jehovah look down, and behold from heaven.51Mine eye affecteth my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.52They have chased me sore like a bird, they that are mine enemies without cause.53They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone upon me.54Waters flowed over my head; I said, I am cut off.
