Job 19:2 How long will you torment me
and break me in pieces with words?
Isa 51:23 and I will put it into the hand of your tormentors,
who have said to you,
Bow down, that we may pass over’;
and you have made your back like the ground
and like the street for them to pass over.”
Lam 1:4 The roads to Zion mourn,
for none come to the festival;
all her gates are desolate;
her priests groan;
her virgins have been afflicted,
and she herself suffers bitterly.
Lam 1:5 Her foes have become the head;
her enemies prosper,
because the Lord has afflicted her
for the multitude of her transgressions;
her children have gone away,
captives before the foe.
Lam 1:12 “Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by?
Look and see
if there is any sorrow like my sorrow,
which was brought upon me,
which the Lord inflicted
on the day of his fierce anger.
Lam 3:32 for, though he cause grief, he will have compassion
according to the abundance of his steadfast love;
Lam 3:33 for he does not afflict from his heart
or grieve the children of men.
Zep 3:18 I will gather those of you who mourn for the festival,
so that you will no longer suffer reproach.
