Lamentations 3




ukjv@Lamentations:3:1 @ I AM the man that has seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:2 @ He has led me, and brought me into darkness, but not into light.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:3 @ Surely against me is he turned; he turns his hand against me all the day.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:4 @ My flesh and my skin has he made old; he has broken my bones.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:5 @ He has built against me, and compassed me with gall and travail.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:6 @ He has set me in dark places, as they that be dead of old.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:7 @ He has hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he has made my chain heavy.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:8 @ Also when I cry and shout, he shuts out my prayer.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:9 @ He has enclosed my ways with hewn stone, he has made my paths crooked.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:10 @ He was unto me as a bear lying in wait, and as a lion in secret places.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:11 @ He has turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he has made me desolate.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:12 @ He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:13 @ He has caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:14 @ I was a derision to all my people; and their song all the day.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:15 @ He has filled me with bitterness, he has made me drunken with wormwood.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:16 @ He has also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he has covered me with ashes.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:17 @ And you have removed my soul far off from peace: I forgotten about prosperity.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:18 @ And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:

ukjv@Lamentations:3:19 @ Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:20 @ My soul has them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:21 @ This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:22 @ It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:23 @ They are new every morning: great is your faithfulness.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:24 @ The LORD is my portion, says my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:25 @ The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeks him.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:26 @ It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:27 @ It is good for a man that he bear the yoke of his youth.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:28 @ He sits alone and keeps silence, because he has borne it upon him.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:29 @ He puts his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:30 @ He gives his cheek to him that strikes him: he is filled full with reproach.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:31 @ For the LORD will not cast off for ever:

ukjv@Lamentations:3:32 @ But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:33 @ For he does not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:34 @ To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:35 @ To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,

ukjv@Lamentations:3:36 @ To subvert a man in his cause, the LORD approves not.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:37 @ Who is he that says, and it comes to pass, when the Lord commands it not?

ukjv@Lamentations:3:38 @ Out of the mouth of the most High proceeds not evil and good?

ukjv@Lamentations:3:39 @ Wherefore does a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?

ukjv@Lamentations:3:40 @ Let us search and try our ways, and return to the LORD.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:41 @ Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:42 @ We have transgressed and have rebelled: you have not pardoned.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:43 @ You have covered with anger, and persecuted us: you have slain, you have not pitied.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:44 @ You have covered yourself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass through.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:45 @ You have made us as the waste and refuse in the midst of the people.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:46 @ All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:47 @ Fear and a snare has come upon us, desolation and destruction.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:48 @ Mine eye runs down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:49 @ Mine eye trickes down, and ceases not, without any intermission.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:50 @ Till the LORD look down, and behold from heaven.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:51 @ Mine eye affects mine heart because of all the daughters of my city.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:52 @ Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:53 @ They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:54 @ Waters flowed over mine head; then I said, I am cut off.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:55 @ I called upon your name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:56 @ You have heard my voice: hide not yours ear at my breathing, at my cry.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:57 @ You drew near in the day that I called upon you: you said, Fear not.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:58 @ O LORD, you have pleaded the causes of my soul; you have redeemed my life.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:59 @ O LORD, you have seen my wrong: judge you my cause.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:60 @ You have seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against me.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:61 @ You have heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their imaginations against me;

ukjv@Lamentations:3:62 @ The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:63 @ Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their music.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:64 @ Render unto them a recompence, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:65 @ Give them sorrow of heart, your curse unto them.

ukjv@Lamentations:3:66 @ Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD.
