Lamentations 3:56-63

56You heard my plea: “Do not close your ears to my cry for relief.”

57You came near when I called you, and you said, “Do not fear.”

58You, Lord, took up my case; you redeemed my life.

59Lord, you have seen the wrong done to me. Uphold my cause!

60You have seen the depth of their vengeance, all their plots against me.

61Lord, you have heard their insults, all their plots against me—

62what my enemies whisper and mutter against me all day long.

63Look at them! Sitting or standing, they mock me in their songs.
