The Book of Lamentations 3
The Darby Online Bible (DBY)
Lamentations 3:1	I am the man that hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
Lamentations 3:2	Me hath he led, and brought into darkness, and not into light.
Lamentations 3:3	Surely against me hath he turned again and again his hand all the day.
Lamentations 3:4	My flesh and my skin hath he wasted away, he hath broken my bones.
Lamentations 3:5	He hath built against me, and encompassed [me] with gall and toil.
Lamentations 3:6	He hath made me to dwell in dark places as those that have been long dead.
Lamentations 3:7	He hath hedged me about that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.
Lamentations 3:8	Even when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
Lamentations 3:9	He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
Lamentations 3:10	He is unto me [as] a bear lying in wait, a lion in secret places.
Lamentations 3:11	He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he hath made me desolate.
Lamentations 3:12	He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
Lamentations 3:13	He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.
Lamentations 3:14	I am become a derision to all my people; their song all the day.
Lamentations 3:15	He hath sated me with bitterness, he hath made me drunk with wormwood.
Lamentations 3:16	He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.
Lamentations 3:17	And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I have forgotten prosperity.
Lamentations 3:18	And I said, My strength is perished, and my hope in Jehovah.
Lamentations 3:19	Remember thou mine affliction and my wandering, the wormwood and the gall.
Lamentations 3:20	My soul hath [them] constantly in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
Lamentations 3:21	This I recall to heart, therefore have I hope.
Lamentations 3:22	It is of Jehovah's loving-kindness we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not;
Lamentations 3:23	they are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:24	Jehovah is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
Lamentations 3:25	Jehovah is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul [that] seeketh him.
Lamentations 3:26	It is good that one should both wait, and that in silence, for the salvation of Jehovah.
Lamentations 3:27	It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth:
Lamentations 3:28	He sitteth solitary and keepeth silence, because he hath laid it upon him;
Lamentations 3:29	he putteth his mouth in the dust, if so be there may be hope;
Lamentations 3:30	he giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him; he is filled full with reproach.
Lamentations 3:31	For the Lord will not cast off for ever;
Lamentations 3:32	but if he have caused grief, he will have compassion according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses:
Lamentations 3:33	for he doth not willingly afflict or grieve the children of men.
Lamentations 3:34	To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
Lamentations 3:35	to turn aside the right of a man before the face of the Most High,
Lamentations 3:36	to wrong a man in his cause, will not the Lord see it?
Lamentations 3:37	Who is he that saith, and there cometh to pass, what the Lord hath not commanded?
Lamentations 3:38	Out of the mouth of the Most High doth not there proceed evil and good?
Lamentations 3:39	Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
Lamentations 3:40	Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Jehovah.
Lamentations 3:41	Let us lift up our heart with [our] hands unto ùGod in the heavens.
Lamentations 3:42	We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.
Lamentations 3:43	Thou hast covered thyself with anger, and pursued us; thou hast slain, thou hast not spared.
Lamentations 3:44	Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that prayer should not pass through.
Lamentations 3:45	Thou hast made us the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the peoples.
Lamentations 3:46	All our enemies have opened their mouth against us.
Lamentations 3:47	Fear and the pit are come upon us, devastation and ruin.
Lamentations 3:48	Mine eye runneth down with streams of water for the ruin of the daughter of my people.
Lamentations 3:49	Mine eye poureth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
Lamentations 3:50	till Jehovah look down and behold from the heavens.
Lamentations 3:51	Mine eye affecteth my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.
Lamentations 3:52	They that are mine enemies without cause have chased me sore like a bird.
Lamentations 3:53	They have cut off my life in a pit, and cast a stone upon me.
Lamentations 3:54	Waters streamed over my head; I said, I am cut off.
Lamentations 3:55	I called upon thy name, Jehovah, out of the lowest pit.
Lamentations 3:56	Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my sighing, at my cry.
Lamentations 3:57	Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee; thou saidst, Fear not.
Lamentations 3:58	Lord, thou hast pleaded the cause of my soul, thou hast redeemed my life.
Lamentations 3:59	Jehovah, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.
Lamentations 3:60	Thou hast seen all their vengeance, all their imaginations against me.
Lamentations 3:61	Thou hast heard their reproach, O Jehovah, all their imaginations against me;
Lamentations 3:62	the lips of those that rise up against me and their meditation against me all the day.
Lamentations 3:63	Behold thou their sitting down and their rising up: I am their song.
Lamentations 3:64	Render unto them a recompence, O Jehovah, according to the work of their hands;
Lamentations 3:65	give them obduracy of heart, thy curse unto them;
Lamentations 3:66	pursue them in anger, and destroy them from under the heavens of Jehovah.
