Lamentations 3:1-6

1I am the man who has seen trouble. God punished me because he was angry with me.

2He has led me into the dark. There is no light, so I cannot see the right way.

3He is completely against me. He causes me trouble all the time.

4God has caused my skin and my whole body to become old. He has broken my bones.

5He has fought against me from every side. He caused much trouble for me, so that I am very sad.

6He has brought me to this dark place. So I am like a person who has been dead for a long time.
