Lamentations 1:20-22

20See, Lord, for I am in distress; My 12spirit is greatly troubled; My heart is overturned within me, For I have been very 3rebellious. In the street the sword has made women childless; In the house it is like death.21They have heard that I 4groan; There is no one to comfort me, All my enemies have heard of my disaster; They are 5joyful that You have done it. Oh, that You would bring the day which You have proclaimed, So that they will become 6like me.22May all their wickedness come before You; And 7deal with them just as You have dealt with me For all my wrongdoings. For my groans are many and my heart is faint.”
