Lamentations 3:40-47

40Let us carefully examine our ways, and let us return to the Lord.

41Let us lift up our hearts and our hands to God in heaven:

42“We have blatantly rebelled; you have not forgiven.” ס (Samek)

43You shrouded yourself with anger and then pursued us; you killed without mercy.

44You shrouded yourself with a cloud so that no prayer can get through.

45You make us like filthy scum in the estimation of the nations. פ (Pe)

46All our enemies have gloated over us;

47Panic and pitfall have come upon us, devastation and destruction.
