Seeker Overlay ON
*
Is it nothing to you ,
all ye that pass by ?
behold ,
and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow mak #
ob #,
which is done unto me ,
wherewith the LORD hath afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger .
*
From above hath he sent fire into my bones ,
and it prevaileth against them :
he hath spread a net for my feet ,
he hath turned me back :
he hath made me desolate and faint all the day .
*
The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand :
they are wreathed ,
and come up upon my neck tsavva #
r #:
he hath made my strength to fall ,
the Lord hath delivered me into their hands ,
from whom I am not able to rise up .
*
The Lord hath trodden under foot all my mighty men in the midst of me :
he hath called an assembly against me to crush my young men :
the Lord hath trodden the virgin ,
the daughter of Judah ,
as in a winepress .
*
For these things I weep ;
mine eye ,
mine eye runneth down with water ,
because the comforter that should relieve my soul is far from me :
my children are desolate ,
because the enemy prevailed .
*
Zion spreadeth forth her hands ,
and there is none to comfort her :
the LORD hath commanded concerning Jacob Ya #
aqob #,
that his adversaries should be round about him :
Jerusalem is as a menstruous woman among them .
*
The LORD is righteous ;
for I have rebelled against his commandment :
hear ,
I pray you ,
all people ,
and behold my sorrow mak #
ob #:
my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity .
*
I called for my lovers ,
but they deceived me :
my priests and mine elders gave up the ghost in the city ,
while they sought their meat to relieve their souls .
*
Behold ,
O LORD ;
for I am in distress :
my bowels are troubled ;
mine heart is turned within me ;
for I have grievously rebelled :
abroad the sword bereaveth ,
at home there is as death .
*
They have heard that I sigh :
there is none to comfort me :
all mine enemies have heard of my trouble ;
they are glad that thou hast done it :
thou wilt bring the day that thou hast called ,
and they shall be like unto me .
*
Let all their wickedness come before thee ;
and do unto them ,
as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions :
for my sighs are many ,
and my heart is faint .
