Lamentations 4:18-20

Jubilee Bible 2000

Tzaddi

¹⁸ They hunt our steps that we cannot walk in our streets; our end came near; our days were fulfilled; for our end is come.

Koph

¹⁹ Our persecutors were swifter than the eagles of the heaven; they pursued us upon the mountains; they laid wait for us in the wilderness.

Resh

²⁰ The breath of our nostrils, the anointed of the LORD, was taken in their pits, of whom we had said, Under his shadow we shall live among the Gentiles.
