Book 25 : LAMENTATIONS - Chapter 003

003:001

He hath led me, and brought me into darkness, but not into light

003:002

Surely against me is he turned; he turneth his hand against me all the day

003:003

My flesh and my skin hath he made old; he hath broken my bones

003:004

He hath builded against me, and compassed me with gall and travail

003:005

He hath set me in dark places, as they that be dead of old

003:006

He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy

003:007

Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer

003:008

He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked

003:009

He was unto me as a bear lying in wait, and as a lion in secret places

003:010

He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he hath made me desolate

003:011

He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow

003:012

He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins

003:013

I was a derision to all my people; and their song all the day

003:014

He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood

003:015

He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes

003:016

And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity

003:017

And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD

003:018

Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall

003:019

My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me

003:020

This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope

003:021

It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not

003:022

They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness

003:023

The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him

003:024

The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him

003:025

It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD

003:026

It is good for a man that he bear the yoke of his youth

003:027

He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne it upon him

003:028

He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope

003:029

He giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach

003:030

For the LORD will not cast off for ever

003:031

But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies

003:032

For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men

003:033

To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth

003:034

To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High

003:035

To subvert a man in his cause, the LORD approveth not

003:036

Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not

003:037

Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good

003:038

Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins

003:039

Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD

003:040

Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens

003:041

We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned

003:042

Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied

003:043

Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass through

003:044

Thou hast made us as the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people

003:045

All our enemies have opened their mouths against us

003:046

Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction

003:047

Mine eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people

003:048

Mine eye trickleth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission

003:049

Till the LORD look down, and behold from heaven

003:050

Mine eye affecteth mine heart because of all the daughters of my city

003:051

Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause

003:052

They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me

003:053

Waters flowed over mine head; then I said, I am cut off

003:054

I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon

003:055

Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry

003:056

Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not

003:057

O LORD, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life

003:058

O LORD, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause

003:059

Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against me

003:060

Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their imaginations against me

003:061

The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day

003:062

Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their musick

003:063

Render unto them a recompence, O LORD, according to the work of their hands

003:064

Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them

003:065

Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD
