jub - Lamentations:3

jub@Lamentations:3:1 @ [Aleph] I [am] a man [that] sees affliction in the rod of his wrath.

jub@Lamentations:3:2 @ [Aleph] He has led me and brought [me into] darkness, but not [into] light.

jub@Lamentations:3:3 @ [Aleph] Surely he is turned against me; he turns his hand [against me] all the day.

jub@Lamentations:3:4 @ [Beth] My flesh and my skin he has made old; he has broken my bones.

jub@Lamentations:3:5 @ [Beth] He has built against me and compassed [me] with gall and travail.

jub@Lamentations:3:6 @ [Beth] He has set me in dark places as [those that are] dead for ever.

jub@Lamentations:3:7 @ [Gimel] He has hedged me about that I cannot get out; he has made my chain heavy.

jub@Lamentations:3:8 @ [Gimel] Even when I cried and shouted, he shut out my prayer.

jub@Lamentations:3:9 @ [Gimel] He has enclosed my ways with hewn stone; he has made my paths crooked.

jub@Lamentations:3:10 @ [Daleth] He [was] unto me [as] a bear lying in wait [and as] a lion in secret places.

jub@Lamentations:3:11 @ [Daleth] He has made my ways crooked and pulled me in pieces; he has made me desolate.

jub@Lamentations:3:12 @ [Daleth] He has bent his bow and set me as a mark for the arrow.

jub@Lamentations:3:13 @ [He] He has caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my kidneys.

jub@Lamentations:3:14 @ [He] I was a derision to all my people [and] their song every day.

jub@Lamentations:3:15 @ [He] He has filled me with bitterness, he has made me drunk with wormwood.

jub@Lamentations:3:16 @ [Vau] He has broken my teeth with gravel stones; he has covered me with ashes.

jub@Lamentations:3:17 @ [Vau] My soul removed itself far from peace; I forgot about good.

jub@Lamentations:3:18 @ [Vau] And I said, My strength and my hope of the LORD is perished.

jub@Lamentations:3:19 @ [Zain] Remember my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

jub@Lamentations:3:20 @ [Zain] My soul shall have [them] still in remembrance because it is humbled in me.

jub@Lamentations:3:21 @ [Zain] This shall go down into my heart; therefore I shall wait.

jub@Lamentations:3:22 @ [Chet] It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed because his mercies never diminish.

jub@Lamentations:3:23 @ [Chet They are] new every morning; great [is] thy faith.

jub@Lamentations:3:24 @ [Chet] The LORD [is] my portion, saith my soul; therefore I will wait for him.

jub@Lamentations:3:25 @ [Teth] The LORD [is] good unto those that wait in him, to the soul [that] seeks him.

jub@Lamentations:3:26 @ [Teth] [It is] good to wait quietly in the salvation of the LORD.

jub@Lamentations:3:27 @ [Teth] [It is] good for the man if he bears the yoke from his youth.

jub@Lamentations:3:28 @ [Jod] He shall sit alone and keep silence because he has borne [it] upon him.

jub@Lamentations:3:29 @ [Jod] He shall put his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.

jub@Lamentations:3:30 @ [Jod] He shall turn [his] cheek unto him that smites him; he shall be filled with reproach.

jub@Lamentations:3:31 @ [Caph] For the Lord will not cast off for ever:

jub@Lamentations:3:32 @ [Caph] But though he causes grief, yet he will also have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.

jub@Lamentations:3:33 @ [Caph] For he does not afflict nor grieve the sons of men from his heart.

jub@Lamentations:3:34 @ [Lamed] To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,

jub@Lamentations:3:35 @ [Lamed] To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,

jub@Lamentations:3:36 @ [Lamed] To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord does not approve.

jub@Lamentations:3:37 @ [Mem] Who shall he be that saith that something comes which the Lord has not sent?

jub@Lamentations:3:38 @ [Mem] Out of the mouth of the most High proceeds not evil and good?

jub@Lamentations:3:39 @ [Mem] Why does the living man have pain, the man in his sins?

jub@Lamentations:3:40 @ [Nun] Let us search out our ways, and seek, and turn again to the LORD.

jub@Lamentations:3:41 @ [Nun] Let us lift up our heart with [our] hands unto God in the heavens.

jub@Lamentations:3:42 @ [Nun] We have rebelled and been disloyal; therefore thou hast not forgiven.

jub@Lamentations:3:43 @ [Samech] Thou hast unfurled anger and persecuted us; thou hast slain, thou hast not forgiven.

jub@Lamentations:3:44 @ [Samech] Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud that [our] prayer should not pass through.

jub@Lamentations:3:45 @ [Samech] Thou hast made us [as] the offscouring and abomination in the midst of the peoples.

jub@Lamentations:3:46 @ [Pe] All our enemies have opened their mouths upon us.

jub@Lamentations:3:47 @ [Pe] Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction.

jub@Lamentations:3:48 @ [Pe] My eyes stream with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

jub@Lamentations:3:49 @ [Ain] My eyes run down, and cease not, for there is no relief,

jub@Lamentations:3:50 @ [Ain] Until the LORD looks down, and beholds from the heavens.

jub@Lamentations:3:51 @ [Ain] My eyes make my soul sad because of all the daughters of my city.

jub@Lamentations:3:52 @ [Tzaddi] My enemies hunted me like a bird, without cause.

jub@Lamentations:3:53 @ [Tzaddi] They bound up my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.

jub@Lamentations:3:54 @ [Tzaddi] Waters flowed over my head; [then] I said, I am dead.

jub@Lamentations:3:55 @ [Koph] I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.

jub@Lamentations:3:56 @ [Koph] Thou hast heard my voice; do not hide thine ear at my cry that I might breath.

jub@Lamentations:3:57 @ [Koph] Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee; thou didst say, Fear not.

jub@Lamentations:3:58 @ [Resh] O Lord, thou hast pleaded the cause of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.

jub@Lamentations:3:59 @ [Resh] O LORD, thou hast seen where I was wrong; plead thou my cause.

jub@Lamentations:3:60 @ [Resh] Thou hast seen all their vengeance [and] all their imaginations against me.

jub@Lamentations:3:61 @ [Schin] Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, [and] all their imaginations against me;

jub@Lamentations:3:62 @ [Schin] The words of those that rose up against me, and their design against me all the day.

jub@Lamentations:3:63 @ [Schin] Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I [am] their music.

jub@Lamentations:3:64 @ [Tau] Render unto them a recompense, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.

jub@Lamentations:3:65 @ [Tau] Give them sorrow of heart; thy curse unto them.

jub@Lamentations:3:66 @ [Tau] Persecute them in thy anger and cut them off from under the heavens, oh LORD.:
