Lamentations 3:52–66

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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