Lamentations 3:47-54
New King James Version
Lamentations 3:47-54
New King James Version
47 (A)Fear and a snare have come upon us,
(B)Desolation and destruction.
48 (C)My eyes overflow with rivers of water
For the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49 (D)My eyes flow and do not cease,
Without interruption,
50 Till the Lord from heaven
(E)Looks down and sees.
51 My eyes bring suffering to my soul
Because of all the daughters of my city.
52 My enemies (F)without cause
Hunted me down like a bird.
53 They [a]silenced my life (G)in the pit
And (H)threw [b]stones at me.
54 (I)The waters flowed over my head;
(J)I said, “I am cut off!”
