Lamentations 3:43–45

“You have wrapped yourself with anger and pursued us,

killing without pity;

you have wrapped yourself with a cloud

so that no prayer can pass through.

You have made us scum and garbage

among the peoples.

“You have covered yourself with anger and pursued us;

you have slain without pity.

You have covered yourself with a cloud

so that no prayer can get through.

You have made us scum and refuse

among the nations.

“You have covered yourself in anger and pursued us;

you have killed without compassion.

You have covered yourself with a cloud

so that no prayer can get through.

You have made us disgusting filth

among the peoples.

“You have engulfed us with your anger, chased us down,

and slaughtered us without mercy.

You have hidden yourself in a cloud

so our prayers cannot reach you.

You have discarded us as refuse and garbage

among the nations.

You have covered yourself in anger and pursued us,

you have slain and not shown mercy.

You have covered yourself in a cloud

so that prayer cannot pass through.

You have made us scum and refuse

in the midst of the nations.

Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.

Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass through.

Thou hast made us as the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.
