Lamentations 2:17-19

17The LORDH3068 hath doneH6213 that whichH834 he devised; he hath fulfilled his wordH565 that he commandedH6680 in the daysH3117 of old; he hath thrownH2040 downH2040, and hath notH3808 pitied: and he hath causedH834 the enemyH341 to rejoiceH8055 over thee, he hath exaltedH7311 the hornH7161 of thine adversaries.

18Their heartH3820 criedH6817 unto the LordH136: O wallH2346 of the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726, letH5414 tearsH1832 runH3381 downH3381 like a riverH5158 dayH3119 and nightH3915; giveH5414 thyself noH408 respite; letH5414 notH408 the apple of thine eyeH5869 cease.

19AriseH6965, cryH7442 outH8210 in the nightH3915, at the beginningH7218 of the watchesH821; pourH8210 outH8210 thine heartH3820 like waterH4325 beforeH6440 the faceH6440 of the LordH136: liftH5375 upH6965 thy handsH3709 towardH413 him for the lifeH5315 of thy young childrenH5768, that faint for hungerH7458 at the topH7218 of everyH3605 streetH2351.
