Lamentations 3:5

Compare all

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.

6 ^aHe has set me in dark places
Like the dead of long ago.

7 ^aHe has hedged me in so that I cannot get out;
He has made my chain heavy.

8 Even ^awhen I cry and shout,
He shuts out my prayer.
