Lamentations 3:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ He has fought against me from every side.
He caused much trouble for me,
so that I am very sad.
⁶ He has brought me to this dark place.
So I am like a person who has been dead for a long time.
⁷ It is as if God has built high walls round me, and I cannot go out.
My troubles are very bad.
They hold me down like heavy chains.
