Lamentations 3:16–17

16 He has broken my teeth with gravel;

he has trampled me in the dust.

17 I have been deprived of peace;

I have forgotten what prosperity is.

16 He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.

17 And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.

16 He has made me chew on gravel.

He has rolled me in the dust.

17 Peace has been stripped away,

and I have forgotten what prosperity is.

16 He has also broken my teeth with gravel,

And covered me with ashes.

17 You have moved my soul far from peace;

I have forgotten prosperity.

16 He broke my teeth with gravel

and trampled me into the dirt.

17 I have no more peace.

I have forgotten what happiness is.

16 He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones; he hath covered me with ashes. 17 And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace; I forgat prosperity.

16 He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes. 17 And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I have forgotten prosperity.

16 He has ground my teeth with gravel. 

He has trampled me into the dust. 

17 “My soul has been kept from enjoying peace. 

I have forgotten what happiness is. 

16 He ground my teeth on gravel

and made me cower in the dust.

17 My soul has been deprived of peace;

I have forgotten what happiness is.

16 He has made my teeth grind on gravel;

he has made me cower in ashes;

17 my soul is bereft of peace;

I have forgotten what happiness is;

16 He has broken my teeth on grit,

he has trampled me down in ash.

17 My life has been removed from peace,

I have forgotten goodness.

16 He made me chew stones that broke my teeth.

He has walked all over me in the dust.

17 I have lost all hope of ever having any peace.

I’ve forgotten what good times are like.

16 He has broken my teeth with gravel;

He has made me cower in the dust.

17 My soul has been rejected from peace;

I have forgotten happiness.
