Lamentations 3:51

Compare all

49 ^aMy eyes flow and do not cease,
Without interruption,

50 Till the Lord from heaven
^aLooks down and sees.

51 My eyes bring suffering to my soul
Because of all the daughters of my city.

52 My enemies ^awithout cause
Hunted me down like a bird.

53 They¹ silenced my life ^ain the pit
And ^bthrew stones at me.

Lamentations 3:51

Mine eye affecteth mine heart - What I see I feel. I see nothing but misery; and I feel, in consequence, nothing but pain. There have been various translations of the original: but they all amount to this.

The daughters of my city - The villages about Jerusalem.
