Lamentations 3:42-54

42 aWe have transgressed and brebelled,
and you have not forgiven.
43 “You have wrapped yourself with anger and pursued us,
ckilling without pity;
44 dyou have wrapped yourself with a cloud
so that no prayer can pass through.
45 eYou have made us scum and garbage
among the peoples.
46 fAll our enemies
open their mouths against us;
47 gpanic and pitfall have come upon us,
devastation and hdestruction;
48 imy 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 kuntil the Lord from heaven
looks down and sees;
51my eyes cause me grief
at the fate of all the daughters of my city.
52 l“I have been hunted mlike a bird
by those who were my enemies nwithout cause;
53 othey flung me alive into the pit
pand cast stones on me;
54 qwater closed over my head;
I said, r‘I am lost.’
