Lamentations 3:4-18
4He has worn away my flesh and skin; He has shattered my bones.5He has besieged me and surrounded me with bitterness and hardship.6He has made me dwell in darkness like those dead for ages.
7He has walled me in so I cannot escape;He has weighed me down with chains.8Even when I cry out and plead for help,He shuts out my prayer.9He has barred my ways with cut stones;He has made my paths crooked.
10He is a bear lying in wait,a lion hiding in ambush.11He forced me off my path and tore me to pieces;He left me without help.12He bent His bowand set me as the target for His arrow.
13He pierced my kidneyswith His arrows.14I am a laughingstock to all my people;they mock me in song all day long.15He has filled me with bitterness;He has intoxicated me with wormwood.
16He has ground my teeth with graveland trampled me in the dust.17My soul has been deprived of peace;I have forgotten what prosperity is.18So I say, “My strength has perished,along with my hope from the LORD.”
