Lamentations 3:52-66

Without cause my enemies Hunted me down like a bird; They silenced me in the pit And placed a stone over me. [Jer 38] The waters ran down on my head; I said, “I am cut off (destroyed)!” I called on Your name, O LORD, Out of the lowest pit. [Jer 38:6] You have heard my voice, “Do not hide Your ear from my prayer for relief, From my cry for help.” You drew near on the day I called to You; You said, “Do not fear.” [James 4:8] O Lord, You have pleaded my soul’s cause [You have guided my way and protected me]; You have rescued and redeemed my life. O LORD, You have seen the wrong [done to me]; Judge my case. You have seen all their vengeance, All their schemes against me. You have heard their reproach, O LORD, And all their schemes against me. The lips and whispering of my assailants Are against me all day long. Look at their sitting and their rising [their actions and secret counsels]; I am their mocking song [the subject of their ridicule]. [Ps 139:2; Is 37:28] You will repay them, O LORD, According to the work of their hands. You will harden their hearts; Your curse will be upon them. You will pursue them in anger and destroy them From under the heavens of the LORD.
