Lamentations 3:13–18
13 He pierced my kidneys
with shafts from his quiver.g
14 I am a laughingstockh to all my people,B
mocked by their songsi all day long.
15 He filled me with bitterness,
satiated me with wormwood.j
16 He ground my teeth with gravelk
and made me cowerC in the dust.
17 I have been deprivedD of peace;l
I have forgotten what prosperity is.
18 Then I thought, “My futureE is lost,
as well as my hope from the Lord.”
