Lamentations 1:18-22
18Jehovah is righteousH6662; for I have rebelledH4784 against his commandment:HearH8085, I pray you, all ye peoplesH5971, and behold my sorrow:My virginsH1330 and my youngH970 menH970 are goneH1980 into captivityH7628.19I calledH7121 for my loversH157, butthey deceived me:My priestsH3548 and mine eldersH2205 gave up the ghost in the cityH5892,While they soughtH1245 them foodH400 to refresh their soulsH5315.20Behold, O Jehovah; for I am in distressH6862; my heartH3820 is troubled;My heartH3820 is turnedH2015 within me; for I have grievously rebelledH4784:Abroad the swordH2719 bereaveth, at home there is as deathH4194.21They have heardH8085 that I sigh; there is none to comfortH5162 me;All mine enemiesH341 have heardH8085 of my troubleH7451; they are glad that thou hast done it:Thou wilt bringH935 the dayH3117 that thou hast proclaimedH7121, and they shall beH1961 like unto me.22Let all their wickednessH7451 comeH935 before thee;And do unto them, as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressionsH6588:For my sighs are manyH7227, and my heartH3820 is faintH1742.
