Lamentations 3:40-54
40Let us examineH2664 and testH2713 our waysH1870, and turn backH7725 toH5704 the LORDH3068.41Let us lift upH5375 our heartsH3824 and handsH3709 toH413 GodH410 in heavenH8064:42“WeH5168 have sinnedH6586 and rebelledH4784; YouH859 have notH3808 forgivenH5545.”
43You have coveredH5526 Yourself in angerH639 and pursued usH7291;You have killedH2026 withoutH3808 pityH2550.44You have coveredH5526 Yourself with a cloudH6051that no prayerH8605 can pass throughH5674.45You have made usH7760 scumH5501 and refuseH3973amongH7130 the nationsH5971.
46AllH3605 our enemiesH341openH6475 their mouthsH6310 against usH5921.47PanicH6343 and pitfallH6354 have comeH1961 upon us—devastationH7612 and destructionH7667.48StreamsH6388 of tearsH4325 flowH3381 from my eyesH5869overH5921 the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.
49My eyesH5869 overflowH5064 unceasinglyH3808H1820,withoutH369 reliefH2014,50untilH5704 the LORDH3068looks downH8259 from heavenH8064 and seesH7200.51My eyesH5869 bring griefH5953 to my soulH5315because of allH3605 the daughtersH1323 of my cityH5892.
52Without causeH2600 my enemiesH341hunted meH6679 like a birdH6833.53They dropped meH6789 aliveH2416 into a pitH953and castH3034 stonesH68 upon me.54The watersH4325 flowedH6687 overH5921 my headH7218,and I thoughtH559 I was going to dieH1504.
