Lamentations 4:18-20
Christian Standard Bible
צ Tsade
18 Our steps were closely followed
so that we could not walk in our streets.
Our end approached;(A) our time ran out.
Our end had come!
ק Qoph
19 Those who chased us were swifter
than eagles in the sky;(B)
they relentlessly pursued us over the mountains
and ambushed us in the wilderness.
ר Resh
20 The Lord’s anointed, the breath of our life,[a](C)
was captured in their traps.
We had said about him,
“We will live under his protection among the nations.”
