The Prophet’s Anguish and Hope

1 I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of His wrath.
2 He has led me and made me walk
In darkness and not in light.
3 Surely He has turned His hand against me
Time and time again throughout the day.
4 He has aged amy flesh and my skin,
And bbroken my bones. 
5 He has besieged me
And surrounded me with bitterness and1 woe.

Lamentations 3:1

I am the man that hath seen affliction - Either the prophet speaks here of himself, or he is personating his miserable countrymen. This and other passages in this poem have been applied to Jesus Christ' s passion; but, in my opinion, without any foundation.
