Lamentations 3:1-23

I [am] the man
<01397>
[that] hath seen
<07200> (8804)
affliction
<06040>
by the rod
<07626>
of his wrath
<05678>_.
He hath led
<05090> (8804)
me, and brought
<03212> (8686)
[me into] darkness
<02822>_,
but not [into] light
<0216>_.
Surely against me is he turned
<07725> (8799)_;
he turneth
<02015> (8799)
his hand
<03027>
[against me] all the day
<03117>_.
My flesh
<01320>
and my skin
<05785>
hath he made old
<01086> (8765)_;
he hath broken
<07665> (8765)
my bones
<06106>_.
He hath builded against
<01129> (8804)
me, and compassed
<05362> (8686)
[me] with gall
<07219>
and travail
<08513>_.
He hath set
<03427> (8689)
me in dark places
<04285>_,
as [they that be] dead
<04191> (8801)
of old
<05769>_.
He hath hedged
<01443> (8804)
me about, that I cannot get out
<03318> (8799)_:
he hath made my chain
<05178>
heavy
<03513> (8689)_.
Also when I cry
<02199> (8799)
and shout
<07768> (8762)_,
he shutteth out
<05640> (8804)
my prayer
<08605>_.
He hath inclosed
<01443> (8804)
my ways
<01870>
with hewn stone
<01496>_,
he hath made my paths
<05410>
crooked
<05753> (8765)_.
He [was] unto me [as] a bear
<01677>
lying in wait
<0693> (8802)_,
[and as] a lion
<0738>
in secret places
<04565>_.
He hath turned aside
<05493> (8790)
my ways
<01870>_,
and pulled me in pieces
<06582> (8762)_:
he hath made
<07760> (8804)
me desolate
<08074> (8802)_.
He hath bent
<01869> (8804)
his bow
<07198>_,
and set
<05324> (8686)
me as a mark
<04307>
for the arrow
<02671>_.
He hath caused the arrows
<01121>
of his quiver
<0827>
to enter
<0935> (8689)
into my reins
<03629>_.
{arrows: Heb. sons}
I was a derision
<07814>
to all my people
<05971>_;
[and] their song
<05058>
all the day
<03117>_.
He hath filled
<07646> (8689)
me with bitterness
<04844>_,
he hath made me drunken
<07301> (8689)
with wormwood
<03939>_.
{bitterness: Heb. bitternesses}
He hath also broken
<01638> (8686)
my teeth
<08127>
with gravel stones
<02687>_,
he hath covered
<03728> (8689)
me with ashes
<0665>_.
{covered...: or, rolled me in the ashes}
And thou hast removed
<02186> (0)
my soul
<05315>
far off
<02186> (8799)
from peace
<07965>_:
I forgat
<05382> (8804)
prosperity
<02896>_.
{prosperity: Heb. good}
And I said
<0559> (8799)_,
My strength
<05331>
and my hope
<08431>
is perished
<06> (8804)
from the LORD
<03068>_:
Remembering
<02142> (8798)
mine affliction
<06040>
and my misery
<04788>_,
the wormwood
<03939>
and the gall
<07219>_.
{Remembering: or, Remember}
My soul
<05315>
hath [them] still
<02142> (8800)
in remembrance
<02142> (8799)_,
and is humbled
<07743> (8686)
in me. {humbled: Heb. bowed}
This I recall
<07725> (8686)
to my mind
<03820>_,
therefore have I hope
<03176> (8686)_.
{recall...: Heb. make to return to my heart}
[It is of] the LORD'S
<03068>
mercies
<02617>
that we are not consumed
<08552> (8804)_,
because his compassions
<07356>
fail
<03615> (8804)
not.
[They are] new
<02319>
every morning
<01242>_:
great
<07227>
[is] thy faithfulness
<0530>_.
