Lamentations 3:48–66

48  tMine eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

49  pMine eye utrickleth down, and vceaseth not, uwithout any intermission,

50  Till wthe Lord look down, and behold from heaven.

51  Mine eye xaffecteth †mine heart ||because of all the daughters of my city.

52  Mine enemies ychased me sore, zlike a bird, awithout cause.

53  They have bcut off my life cin the dungeon, and dcast a stone upon me.

54  eWaters flowed over mine head; then fI said, fgI am cut off.

55  hI called upon thy name, O Lord, iout of the low dungeon.

56  hkThou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my lbreathing, at my cry.

57  mThou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: nthou saidst, Fear not.

58  O Lord, thou hast oppleaded the causes of my soul; pqthou hast redeemed my life.

59  O Lord, thou hast seen my rwrong: sjudge thou my cause.

60  Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all ttheir imaginations against me.

61  Thou hast heard tttheir reproach, O Lord, and all ttheir imaginations against me;

62  The lips of uthose that rose up against me, and their vdevice against me all the day.

63  Behold their wsitting down, and their wrising up; xI am their musick.

64  yzRender unto them a recompence, O Lord, yaccording to the work of their hands.

65  zGive them ||sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.

66  zPersecute and destroy them in anger afrom under bthe heavens of the Lord.
