Lamentations 3:56-63

56Listen to my cry ⌞for help⌟. Don’t close your ears when I cry out for relief.

57Be close at hand when I call to you. You told me not to be afraid.

58Plead my case for me, O Lord. Reclaim my life.

59Look at the wrong that has been done to me, O Lord. Give me a fair verdict.

60Look at all their malice, all their plots against me.

61Listen to their insults, all their plots against me.

62The words and thoughts of those who attack me are directed against me all day long.

63Look at them! Whether they are sitting or standing, they make fun of me in their songs.
