Lamentations 3:53
Compare all
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. 
54 aThe waters flowed over my head;
bI said, “I am cut off!” 
55 aI called on Your name, O Lord,
From the lowest bpit. 
56 aYou have heard my voice:
“Do not hide Your ear
From my sighing, from my cry for help.” 
57 You adrew near on the day I called on You,
And said, b“Do not fear!” 
58 O Lord, You have apleaded the case for my soul;
bYou have redeemed my life.
