Lamentations 3:42-54
English Standard Version
43 “You have wrapped yourself with anger and pursued us,
(C)killing without pity;
44 (D)you have wrapped yourself with a cloud
so that no prayer can pass through.
45 (E)You have made us scum and garbage
among the peoples.
46 (F)“All our enemies
open their mouths against us;
47 (G)panic and pitfall have come upon us,
devastation and (H)destruction;
48 (I)my eyes flow with rivers of tears
because of the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49 (J)“My eyes will flow without ceasing,
without respite,
50 (K)until the Lord from heaven
looks down and sees;
51 my eyes cause me grief
at the fate of all the daughters of my city.
52 (L)“I have been hunted (M)like a bird
by those who were my enemies (N)without cause;
53 (O)they flung me alive into the pit
(P)and cast stones on me;
54 (Q)water closed over my head;
I said, (R)‘I am lost.’
