44 You have covered Yourself with a cloud,
That prayer should not pass through.
45 You have made us an
aoffscouring and refuse
In the midst of the peoples.
46 aAll our enemies
Have opened their mouths against us.
47 aFear and a snare have come upon us,
bDesolation and destruction.
48 aMy eyes overflow with rivers of water
For the destruction of the daughter of my people.
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 They
1 silenced my life
ain the pit
And
bthrew stones at me.
