Lamentations 1:12-22

12“Is it 1nothingH3808 to allH3605 you who passH5674 this wayH1870? LookH5027 and seeH7200 ifH518 thereH3426 isH3426 any painH4341 like my painH4341 WhichH834 was inflictedH5953 on me, With whichH834 the 2LordH3068 tormentedH3013 me on the dayH3117 of His 3fierceH2740 angerH639.13From 4the heightH4791 He sentH7971 fireH784 into my 5bonesH6106, And it dominatedH7287 them. He has spreadH6566 a 6netH7568 for my feetH7272; He has turnedH7725 me backH268; He has madeH5414 me 7desolateH8074, 8FaintH1739 allH3605 dayH3117 long.14The 9yokeH5923 of my wrongdoingsH6588 is boundH8244; By His handH3027 they are wovenH8276 togetherH8276. They have 10comeH5927 upon my neckH6677; He has made my strengthH3581 11failH3782. The LordH136 12has handedH5414H3027 me overH5414 To those against whom I amH3201 not ableH3201 to standH6965.15The 13LordH136 has thrownH5541 awayH5541 allH3605 my strongH47 menH47 In my midstH7130; He has calledH7121 an appointedH4150 14timeH4150 againstH5921 me To crushH7665 my 15youngH970 menH970; The LordH136 has 16troddenH1869 as in a wineH1660 pressH1660 The virginH1330 daughterH1323 of JudahH3063.16For theseH428 thingsH428 I 17weepH1058; 18My eyesH5869 runH3381 downH3381 with waterH4325; BecauseH3588 farH7368 from me isH7368 a 19comforterH5162, One to restoreH7725 my soulH5315. My childrenH1121 are desolateH8074 BecauseH3588 the enemyH340 has prevailedH1396.”17ZionH6726 20stretchesH6566 outH6566 with her handsH3027; ThereH369 isH369 noH369 oneH369 to comfortH5162 her; The LordH3068 has 21commandedH6680 regarding JacobH3290 That those aroundH5439 him become his adversariesH6862; 22JerusalemH3389 has becomeH1961 a filthyH5079 thingH5079 amongH996 them.18“The LordH3068 is 23righteousH6662, For I have 24rebelledH4784 againstH854 His 25commandH6310; HearH8085 nowH4994, allH3605 peoplesH5971, And 26seeH7200 my painH4341; 27My virginsH1330 and my youngH970 menH970 Have goneH1980 into captivityH7628.19I 28calledH7121 to my loversH157, but they desertedH7411 me; My 29priestsH3548 and my eldersH2205 perishedH1478 in the cityH5892 WhileH3588 they soughtH1245 foodH400 to 30restoreH7725 their 31strengthH5315 themselves.20SeeH7200, LordH3068, for I amH6887 inH6887 distressH6887; My 3233spiritH4578 is greatlyH2560 troubledH2560; My heartH3820 is overturnedH2015 withinH7130 me, For I have been veryH4784 34rebelliousH4784. In the streetH2351 the swordH2719 has madeH7921 women childlessH7921; In the houseH1004 it is like deathH4194.21They have heardH8085 that I 35groanH584; ThereH369 isH369 noH369 oneH369 to comfortH5162 me, AllH3605 my enemiesH340 have heardH8085 of my disasterH7463; They are 36joyfulH7797 that You have doneH6213 it. Oh, that You would bringH935 the dayH3117 which You have proclaimedH7121, So that they will becomeH1961 37likeH3644 me.22May allH3605 their wickednessH7463 comeH935 beforeH6440 You; And 38dealH5953 with them justH3512 asH3512 You have dealtH5953 with me For allH3605 my wrongdoingsH6588. For my groansH585 are manyH7227 and my heartH3820 is faintH1742.”
