25_LAM_03_01 I [am] the man [that] hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.

25_LAM_03_02 He hath led me, and brought [me into] darkness, but not [into] light.

25_LAM_03_03 Surely against me is he turned; he turneth his hand [against me] all the day.

25_LAM_03_04 My flesh and my skin hath he made old: he hath broken my bones.

25_LAM_03_05 He hath builded against me, and compassed [me] with gall and travail.

25_LAM_03_06 He hath set me in dark places, as [they that be] dead of old.

25_LAM_03_07 He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.

25_LAM_03_08 Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.

25_LAM_03_09 He hath enclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.

25_LAM_03_10 He [was] unto me [as] a bear lying in wait, [and as] a lion in secret places.

25_LAM_03_11 He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he hath made me desolate.

25_LAM_03_12 He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

25_LAM_03_13 He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.

25_LAM_03_14 I was a derision to all my people; [and] their song all the day.

25_LAM_03_15 He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood.

25_LAM_03_16 He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.

25_LAM_03_17 And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.

25_LAM_03_18 And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:

25_LAM_03_19 Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

25_LAM_03_20 My soul hath [them] still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.

25_LAM_03_21 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.

25_LAM_03_22 [It is of] the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

25_LAM_03_23 [They are] new every morning: great [is] thy faithfulness.

25_LAM_03_24 The LORD [is] my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

25_LAM_03_25 The LORD [is] good unto them that wait for him, to the soul [that] seeketh him.

25_LAM_03_26 [It is] good that [a man] should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

25_LAM_03_27 [It is] good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.

25_LAM_03_28 He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne [it] upon him.

25_LAM_03_29 He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.

25_LAM_03_30 He giveth [his] cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.

25_LAM_03_31 For the Lord will not cast off for ever:

25_LAM_03_32 But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.

25_LAM_03_33 For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.

25_LAM_03_34 To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,

25_LAM_03_35 To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,

25_LAM_03_36 To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.

25_LAM_03_37 Who [is] he [that] saith, and it cometh to pass, [when] the Lord commandeth [it] not?

25_LAM_03_38 Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?

25_LAM_03_39 Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?

25_LAM_03_40 Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.

25_LAM_03_41 Let us lift up our heart with [our] hands unto God in the heavens.

25_LAM_03_42 We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.

25_LAM_03_43 Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.

25_LAM_03_44 Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that [our] prayer should not pass through.

25_LAM_03_45 Thou hast made us [as] the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.

25_LAM_03_46 All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.

25_LAM_03_47 Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction.

25_LAM_03_48 Mine eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

25_LAM_03_49 Mine eye trickleth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,

25_LAM_03_50 Till the LORD look down, and behold from heaven.

25_LAM_03_51 Mine eye affecteth mine heart because of all the daughters of my city.

25_LAM_03_52 Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause.

25_LAM_03_53 They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.

25_LAM_03_54 Waters flowed over mine head; [then] I said, I am cut off.

25_LAM_03_55 I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.

25_LAM_03_56 Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.

25_LAM_03_57 Thou drewest near in the day [that] I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.

25_LAM_03_58 O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.

25_LAM_03_59 O LORD, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.

25_LAM_03_60 Thou hast seen all their vengeance [and] all their imaginations against me.

25_LAM_03_61 Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, [and] all their imaginations against me;

25_LAM_03_62 The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.

25_LAM_03_63 Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I [am] their music.

25_LAM_03_64 Render unto them a recompense, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.

25_LAM_03_65 Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.

25_LAM_03_66 Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD.
