Lamentations:3:2-18
Seeker Overlay ON
*
He hath led me ,
and brought me into darkness ,
but not into light .
*
Surely against me is he turned ;
he turneth his hand against me all the day .
*
My flesh and my skin hath he made old ;
he hath broken my bones .
*
He hath builded against me ,
and compassed me with gall and travail t @
la #
ah #.
*
He hath set me in dark places ,
as they that be dead of old .
*
He hath hedged me about ,
that I cannot get out :
he hath made my chain heavy .
*
Also when I cry and shout ,
he shutteth out my prayer .
*
He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone ,
he hath made my paths crooked .
*
He was unto me as a bear lying in wait ,
and as a lion in secret places .
*
He hath turned aside my ways ,
and pulled me in pieces :
he hath made me desolate .
*
He hath bent his bow ,
and set me as a mark for the arrow .
*
He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins .
*
I was a derision to all my people ;
and their song all the day .
*
He hath filled me with bitterness ,
he hath made me drunken with wormwood la #
anah #.
*
He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones ,
he hath covered me with ashes .
*
And thou hast removed #
my soul far off from peace :
I forgat prosperity .
*
And I said ,
My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD :
