Lamentations 1:18-22

18The LORDH3068 is righteousH6662; for I have rebelledH4784 againstH4784 his commandmentH6310: hearH8085, I prayH4994 youH3588, allH3605 ye peoplesH5971, and beholdH7200 my sorrowH4341: my virginsH1330 and my youngH970 menH970 are goneH1980 intoH1980 captivityH7628. 19I calledH7121 for my loversH157, but they deceivedH7411 meH5315: my priestsH3548 and mine eldersH2205 gaveH7121 upH853 the ghost in the cityH5892, whileH3588 they soughtH1245 them meat to refresh their soulsH5315. 20BeholdH7200, O LORDH3068; for I am in distressH6862; my bowelsH4578 are troubled; mine heartH3820 is turnedH2015 withinH7130 meH7200; for I have grievously rebelledH4784: abroadH2351 the swordH2719 bereaveth, at homeH1004 there is as deathH4194. 21They have heardH8085 that I sighH584; there is noneH369 to comfortH5162 meH935; allH3605 mine enemiesH341 have heardH8085 of my troubleH7451; they are gladH7797 that thou hast doneH6213 it: thou wilt bringH935 the dayH3117 that thou hast proclaimedH7121, and they shall be like unto meH935. 22Let allH3605 their wickednessH7451 comeH935 beforeH6440 thee; and doH3605 unto them, as thou hast doneH7451 unto meH6440 for allH3605 my transgressionsH6588: for my sighs are manyH7227, and my heartH3820 is faintH1742.
