Lamentations 1:18-22

18The LORDH3068 is righteousH6662; for I have rebelledH4784 against his commandmentH6310: hearH8085, I pray you, all peopleH5971, and beholdH7200 my sorrowH4341: my virginsH1330 and my young menH970 are goneH1980 into captivityH7628.1 19I calledH7121 for my loversH157, but they deceivedH7411 me: my priestsH3548 and my eldersH2205 gave up the ghostH1478 in the cityH5892, while they soughtH1245 their foodH400 to relieveH7725 their soulsH5315. 20BeholdH7200, O LORDH3068; for I am in distressH6887: my heartH4578 is troubledH2560; my heartH3820 is turnedH2015 withinH7130 me; for I have grievouslyH4784 rebelledH4784: abroadH2351 the swordH2719 bereavethH7921, at homeH1004 there is as deathH4194. 21They have heardH8085 that I sighH584: there is none to comfortH5162 me: all my enemiesH341 have heardH8085 of my troubleH7451; they are gladH7797 that thou hast doneH6213 it : thou wilt bringH935 the dayH3117 that thou hast calledH7121, and they shall be likeH3644 me.2 22Let all their wickednessH7451 comeH935 beforeH6440 thee; and doH5953 to them, as thou hast doneH5953 to me for all my transgressionsH6588: for my sighsH585 are manyH7227, and my heartH3820 is faintH1742.
