Lamentations 1:11-22

11AllH3605 her peopleH5971 groanH584 1seekingH1245 breadH3899; They have givenH5414 their preciousH4262 thingsH4262 for foodH400 To 2restoreH7725 their 3livesH5315 themselves. “SeeH7200, O LordH3068, and lookH5027, For I amH1961 4despisedH2151.”12“Is 5it nothingH3808 to allH3605 you who passH5674 this wayH1870? LookH5027 and seeH7200 ifH518 thereH3426 is anyH3426 6painH4341 like my 7painH4341 WhichH834 was severelyH5953 dealtH5953 out to me, WhichH834 the 8LordH3068 inflictedH3013 on the dayH3117 of His 9fierceH2740 angerH639.13From on highH4791 He sentH7971 fireH784 into my 10bonesH6106, And it 11prevailedH7287 over them. He has spreadH6566 a 12netH7568 for my feetH7272; He has turnedH7725 me backH268; He has madeH5414 me 13desolateH8074, 14FaintH1739 allH3605 dayH3117 long.14The 15yokeH5923 of my transgressionsH6588 is boundH8244; By His handH3027 they are knitH8276 togetherH8276. They have 16comeH5927 upon my neckH6677; He has made my strengthH3581 17failH3782. The LordH136 18has givenH5414 me into the handsH3027 Of those against whom I am not ableH3201 to standH6965.15The 19LordH136 has rejectedH5541 allH3605 my strongH47 menH47 In my midstH7130; He has calledH7121 an appointedH4150 20timeH4150 againstH5921 me To crushH7665 my 21youngH970 menH970; The LordH136 has 22troddenH1869 as in a wineH1660 pressH1660 The virginH1330 daughterH1323 of JudahH3063.16For theseH428 thingsH428 I 23weepH1058; 24My eyesH5869 runH3381 downH3381 with waterH4325; BecauseH3588 farH7368 from me is a 25comforterH5162, One who restoresH7725 my soulH5315. My childrenH1121 are desolateH8074 BecauseH3588 the enemyH340 has prevailedH1396.”17ZionH6726 26stretchesH6566 out her handsH3027; ThereH369 is noH369 oneH369 to comfortH5162 her; The LordH3068 has 27commandedH6680 concerning JacobH3290 That the ones roundH5439 aboutH5439 him should be his adversariesH6862; 28JerusalemH3389 has becomeH1961 an uncleanH5079 thingH5079 amongH996 them.18“The LordH3068 is 29righteousH6662; For I have 30rebelledH4784 againstH854 His 31commandH6310; HearH8085 nowH4994, allH3605 peoplesH5971, And 32beholdH7200 my 33painH4341; 34My virginsH1330 and my youngH970 menH970 Have goneH1980 into captivityH7628.19I 35calledH7121 to my loversH157, but they deceivedH7411 me; My 36priestsH3548 and my eldersH2205 perishedH1478 in the cityH5892 WhileH3588 they soughtH1245 foodH400 to 37restoreH7725 38their strengthH5315 themselves.20SeeH7200, O LordH3068, for I am in distressH6887; My 3940spiritH4578 is greatlyH2560 troubledH2560; My heartH3820 is overturnedH2015 withinH7130 me, For I have been veryH4784 41rebelliousH4784. In the streetH2351 the swordH2719 42slaysH7921; In the houseH1004 it is like deathH4194.21They have heardH8085 that I 43groanH584; ThereH369 is noH369 oneH369 to comfortH5162 me; AllH3605 my enemiesH340 have heardH8085 of my 44calamityH7463; They are 45gladH7797 that You have doneH6213 it. Oh, that You would bringH935 the dayH3117 which You have proclaimedH7121, That they may becomeH1961 46likeH3644 me.22Let allH3605 their wickednessH7463 comeH935 beforeH6440 You; And 47dealH5953 with them as You have dealtH5953 with me For allH3605 my transgressionsH6588; For my groansH585 are manyH7227 and my heartH3820 is faintH1742.”
