Lamentations 3:46–54
46“All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.↗
47Terror and the pit have come on us, devastation and destruction.”↗
48My eye runs down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.↗
49My eye pours down and doesn’t cease, without any intermission,↗
50until the LORD looks down, and sees from heaven.↗
51My eye affects my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.↗
52They have chased me relentlessly like a bird, those who are my enemies without cause.↗
53They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone on me.↗
54Waters flowed over my head. I said, “I am cut off.”↗
