Lamentations 3:66 (NET) New English Translation

1 I am the man who has experienced affliction from the rod of his wrath.
2 He drove me into captivity and made me walk in darkness and not light.
3 He repeatedly attacks me, he turns his hand against me all day long.&u05D1; (Bet)
4 He has made my mortal skin waste away; he has broken my bones.
5 He has besieged and surrounded me with bitter hardship.
6 He has made me reside in deepest darkness like those who died long ago.&u05D2; (Gimel)
7 He has walled me in so that I cannot get out; he has weighted me down with heavy prison chains.
8 Also, when I cry out desperately for help, he has shut out my prayer.
9 He has blocked every road I take with a wall of hewn stones; he has made every path impassable.&u05D3; (Dalet)
10 To me he is like a bear lying in ambush, like a hidden lion stalking its prey.
11 He has obstructed my paths and torn me to pieces; he has made me desolate.
12 He drew his bow and made me the target for his arrow.&u05D4; (He)
13 He shot his arrows into my heart.
14 I have become the laughingstock of all people, their mocking song all day long.
15 He has given me my fill of bitter herbs and made me drunk with bitterness.&u05D5; (Vav)
16 He ground my teeth in gravel; he trampled me in the dust.
17 I am deprived of peace; I have forgotten what happiness is.
18 So I said, "My endurance has expired; I have lost all hope of deliverance from the LORD."&u05D6; (Zayin)
19 Remember my impoverished and homeless condition, which is a bitter poison.
20 I continually think about this, and I am depressed.
21 But this I call to mind; therefore I have hope:&u05D7; (Khet)
22 The LORD's loyal kindness never ceases; his compassions never end.
23 They are fresh every morning; your faithfulness is abundant!
24 "My portion is the Lord," I have said to myself, so I will put my hope in him.&u05D8; (Tet)
25 The LORD is good to those who trust in him, to the one who seeks him.
26 It is good to wait patiently for deliverance from the LORD.
27 It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is young.&u05D9; (Yod)
28 Let a person sit alone in silence, when the LORD is disciplining him.
29 Let him bury his face in the dust; perhaps there is hope.
30 Let him offer his cheek to the one who hits him; let him have his fill of insults.&u05DB; (Kaf)
31 For the Lord will not reject us forever.
32 Though he causes us grief, he then has compassion on us according to the abundance of his loyal kindness.
33 For he is not predisposed to afflict or to grieve people.&u05DC; (Lamed)
34 To crush underfoot all the earth's prisoners,
35 to deprive a person of his rights in the presence of the Most High,
36 to defraud a person in a lawsuit— the Lord does not approve of such things!&u05DE; (Mem)
37 Whose command was ever fulfilled unless the Lord decreed it?
38 Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that everything comes— both calamity and blessing?
39 Why should any living person complain when punished for his sins?&u05E0; (Nun)
40 Let us carefully examine our ways, and let us return to the LORD.
41 Let us lift up our hearts and our hands to God in heaven:
42 "We have blatantly rebelled; you have not forgiven."&u05E1; (Samek)
43 You shrouded yourself with anger and then pursued us; you killed without mercy.
44 You shrouded yourself with a cloud so that no prayer can get through.
45 You make us like filthy scum in the estimation of the nations.&u05E4; (Pe)
46 All our enemies have gloated over us;
47 Panic and pitfall have come upon us, devastation and destruction.
48 Streams of tears flow from my eyes because my people are destroyed.&u05E2; (Ayin)
49 Tears flow from my eyes and will not stop; there will be no break
50 until the LORD looks down from heaven and sees what has happened.
51 What my eyes see grieves me— all the suffering of the daughters in my city.&u05E6; (Tsade)
52 For no good reason my enemies hunted me down like a bird.
53 They shut me up in a pit and threw stones at me.
54 The waters closed over my head; I thought I was about to die.&u05E7; (Qof)
55 I have called on your name, O LORD, from the deepest pit.
56 You heard my plea: "Do not close your ears to my cry for relief!"
57 You came near on the day I called to you; you said, "Do not fear!"&u05E8; (Resh)
58 O Lord, you championed my cause, you redeemed my life.
59 You have seen the wrong done to me, O LORD; pronounce judgment on my behalf!
60 You have seen all their vengeance, all their plots against me.&u05E9; (Sin/Shin)
61 You have heard their taunts, O LORD, all their plots against me.
62 My assailants revile and conspire against me all day long.
63 Watch them from morning to evening; I am the object of their mocking songs.&u05EA; (Tav)
64 Pay them back what they deserve, O LORD, according to what they have done.
65 Give them a distraught heart; may your curse be on them!
66 Pursue them in anger and eradicate them from under the LORD's heaven.&u05D0; (Alef)
1 I H589 PPRO-1MS am the man H1397 that hath seen H7200 VQQ3MS affliction H6040 by the rod H7626 of his wrath H5678 .
2 He hath led H5090 me , and brought H1980 me into darkness H2822 NMS , but not H3808 W-NPAR into light H216 NMS .
3 Surely H389 ADV against me is he turned H7725 ; he turneth H2015 his hand H3027 CFS-3MS against me all H3605 NMS the day H3117 D-NMS .
4 My flesh H1320 CMS-1MS and my skin H5785 hath he made old H1086 ; he hath broken H7665 my bones H6106 .
5 He hath built H1129 VQQ3MS against H5921 PREP-1MS me , and compassed H5362 me with gall H7219 CMS and travail H8513 .
6 He hath set H3427 me in dark places H4285 , as they that be dead H4191 of old H5769 NMS .
7 He hath hedged H1443 me about H1157 , that I cannot H3808 W-NPAR get out H3318 VQY1MS : he hath made my chain heavy H3513 .
8 Also H1571 CONJ when H3588 CONJ I cry H2199 and shout H7768 , he shutteth out H5640 my prayer H8605 .
9 He hath enclosed H1443 my ways H1870 NMP-1MS with hewn stone H1496 , he hath made my paths crooked H5753 .
10 He H1931 PPRO-3MS was unto me as a bear H1677 lying in wait H693 , and as a lion H738 in secret places H4565 .
11 He hath turned aside H5493 my ways H1870 NMP-1MS , and pulled me in pieces H6582 : he hath made H7760 me desolate H8074 .
12 He hath bent H1869 his bow H7198 , and set H5324 me as a mark H4307 for the arrow H2671 .
13 He hath caused the arrows H1121 of his quiver H827 to enter H935 VHQ3MS into my reins H3629 .
14 I was H1961 VQQ1MS a derision H7814 to all H3605 NMS my people H5971 ; and their song H5058 CFS-3MP all H3605 NMS the day H3117 D-NMS .
15 He hath filled H7646 me with bitterness H4844 , he hath made me drunken H7301 with wormwood H3939 .
16 He hath also broken H1638 my teeth H8127 with gravel stones H2687 , he hath covered H3728 me with ashes H665 .
17 And thou hast removed my soul far off H2186 from peace H7965 : I forgot H5382 prosperity H2896 NFS .
18 And I said H559 W-VQY1MS , My strength H5331 and my hope H8431 is perished H6 VQQ3MS from the LORD H3068 :
19 Remembering H2142 VQI2MS mine affliction H6040 and my misery H4788 , the wormwood H3939 and the gall H7219 .
20 My soul H5315 CFS-1MS hath them still in remembrance H2142 , and is humbled H7743 in H5921 PREP-1MS me .
21 This H2063 DPRO I recall H7725 to H413 PREP my mind H3820 NMS-1MS , therefore H3651 ADV have I hope H3176 .
22 It is of the LORD H3068 EDS \'s mercies H2617 that H3588 CONJ we are not H3808 NADV consumed H8552 , because H3588 CONJ his compassions H7356 fail H3615 not H3808 NADV .
23 They are new H2319 AMP every morning H1242 : great H7227 AFS is thy faithfulness H530 .
24 The LORD H3068 EDS is my portion H2506 CMS-1MS , saith H559 VQQ3FS my soul H5315 CFS-1MS ; therefore H3651 ADV will I hope H3176 in him .
25 The LORD H3068 EDS is good H2896 AMS unto them that wait for H6960 him , to the soul H5315 L-GFS that seeketh H1875 him .
26 It is good H2896 AMS that a man should both hope H3175 and quietly wait H1748 for the salvation H8668 of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
27 It is good H2896 AMS for a man H1397 that H3588 CONJ he bear H5375 VQY3MS the yoke H5923 in his youth H5271 .
28 He sitteth H3427 alone H910 and keepeth silence H1826 , because H3588 CONJ he hath borne H5190 it upon H5921 him .
29 He putteth H5414 VHFA his mouth H6310 CMS-3MS in the dust H6083 ; if so be H194 ADV there may be H3426 PART hope H8615 NFS .
30 He giveth H5414 VHFA his cheek H3895 to him that smiteth H5221 him : he is filled full H7646 with reproach H2781 .
31 For H3588 CONJ the Lord H136 will not H3808 NADV cast off H2186 forever H5769 L-NMS :
32 But H3588 CONJ though H518 PART he cause grief H3013 , yet will he have compassion H7355 according to the multitude H7230 of his mercies H2617 .
33 For H3588 CONJ he doth not H3808 NADV afflict H6031 willingly H3820 nor grieve H3013 the children H1121 CMP of men H376 NMS .
34 To crush H1792 under H8478 NMS his feet H7272 all H3605 NMS the prisoners H615 of the earth H776 GFS ,
35 To turn aside H5186 the right H4941 CMS of a man H1397 NMS before H5048 the face H6440 CMP of the most High H5945 AMS ,
36 To subvert H5791 a man H120 NMS in his cause H7379 , the Lord H136 EDS approveth H7200 not H3808 NADV .
37 Who H4310 IPRO is he H2088 DPRO that saith H559 VQQ3MS , and it cometh to pass H1961 , when the Lord H136 EDS commandeth H6680 it not H3808 NADV ?
38 Out of the mouth H6310 M-CMS of the most High H5945 AMS proceedeth H3318 not H3808 NADV evil H7451 and good H2896 ?
39 Wherefore H4100 IPRO doth a living H2416 AMS man H120 NMS complain H596 , a man H1397 NMS for H5921 PREP the punishment of his sins H2399 ?
40 Let us search H2664 and try H2713 our ways H1870 , and turn again H7725 to H5704 PREP the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
41 Let us lift up H5375 our heart H3824 with H413 PREP our hands H3709 unto H413 PREP God H410 EDS in the heavens H8064 .
42 We H5168 have transgressed H6586 and have rebelled H4784 : thou H859 PPRO-2MS hast not H3808 NADV pardoned H5545 .
43 Thou hast covered H5526 with anger H639 , and persecuted H7291 us : thou hast slain H2026 , thou hast not H3808 NADV pitied H2550 .
44 Thou hast covered H5526 thyself with a cloud H6051 , that our prayer H8605 should not pass through H5674 .
45 Thou hast made H7760 us as the offscouring H5501 and refuse H3973 in the midst H7130 of the people H5971 .
46 All H3605 NMS our enemies H341 have opened H6475 their mouths H6310 against H5921 PREP-1MP us .
47 Fear H6343 NMS and a snare H6354 is come H1961 VQQ3MS upon us , desolation H7612 and destruction H7667 .
48 Mine eye H5869 CMS-1MS runneth down H3381 with rivers H6388 CMP of water H4325 OMD for H5921 PREP the destruction H7667 of the daughter H1323 CFS of my people H5971 .
49 Mine eye H5869 CMS-1MS trickleth down H5064 , and ceaseth H1820 not H3808 W-NPAR , without any H369 intermission H2014 ,
50 Till H5704 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS look down H8259 , and behold H7200 from heaven H8064 .
51 Mine eye H5869 CMS-1MS affecteth H5953 mine heart H5315 because of all H3605 M-CMS the daughters H1323 CFP of my city H5892 .
52 Mine enemies H341 chased me sore H6679 , like a bird H6833 KD-NMS , without cause H2600 ADV .
53 They have cut off H6789 my life H2416 CMP-1MS in the dungeon H953 , and cast H3034 a stone H68 GFS upon me .
54 Waters H4325 OMD flowed H6687 over H5921 PREP mine head H7218 CMS-1MS ; then I said H559 VQQ1MS , I am cut off H1504 .
55 I called upon H7121 VQQ1CS thy name H8034 , O LORD H3068 EDS , out of the low dungeon H953 .
56 Thou hast heard H8085 my voice H6963 NMS-1MS : hide H5956 not H408 NPAR thine ear H241 at my breathing H7309 , at my cry H7775 .
57 Thou drewest near H7126 in the day H3117 B-NMS that I called upon H7121 thee : thou saidst H559 VQQ2MS , Fear H3372 VQY2MS not H408 NPAR .
58 O Lord H136 EDS , thou hast pleaded H7378 the causes H7379 of my soul H5315 CFS-1MS ; thou hast redeemed H1350 my life H2416 CMS-1MS .
59 O LORD H3068 EDS , thou hast seen H7200 my wrong H5792 : judge H8199 thou my cause H4941 CMS-1MS .
60 Thou hast seen H7200 all H3605 NMS their vengeance H5360 and all H3605 NMS their imaginations H4284 against me .
61 Thou hast heard H8085 VQQ2MS their reproach H2781 , O LORD H3068 EDS , and all H3605 NMS their imaginations H4284 against H5921 me ;
62 The lips H8193 of those that rose up against H6965 me , and their device H1902 against H5921 PREP-1MS me all H3605 NMS the day H3117 D-NMS .
63 Behold H5027 their sitting down H3427 , and their rising up H7012 ; I H589 PPRO-1MS am their music H4485 .
64 Render H7725 unto them a recompense H1576 , O LORD H3068 EDS , according to the work H4639 of their hands H3027 CFD-3MP .
65 Give H5414 VQY2MS them sorrow H4044 of heart H3820 NMS , thy curse H8381 unto them .
66 Persecute H7291 VQY3FS and destroy H8045 them in anger H639 from under H8478 M-CFS the heavens H8064 of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
