Lamentations 4:18-20

Names of God Bible

¹⁸ The enemy kept tracking us down,
    so we couldn’t even go out into the streets.
        Our end was near.
        Our time was up.
        Our end had come.
¹⁹ Those who were hunting us were faster than eagles in the sky.
    They chased us in the mountains and ambushed us in the wilderness.
²⁰ The person Yahweh anointed as king, who is the breath of our life,
    was caught in their pits.
        We had thought that we would live
            in our king’s shadow among the nations.”
