Lamentations 3:37–45
37Who is he who says, and it comes to pass, when the Lord doesn’t command it?↗
38Doesn’t evil and good come out of the mouth of the Most High?↗
39Why should a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?↗
40Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.↗
41Let’s lift up our heart with our hands to God in the heavens.↗
42“We have transgressed and have rebelled. You have not pardoned.↗
43“You have covered us with anger and pursued us. You have killed. You have not pitied.↗
44You have covered yourself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.↗
45You have made us an off-scouring and refuse in the middle of the peoples.↗
