Lamentations 3 New International Version (NIV)3 [a]I am the man who has seen affliction 4 He has made my skin and my flesh grow old 7 He has walled me in so I cannot escape; 10 Like a bear lying in wait, 13 He pierced my heart 16 He has broken my teeth with gravel; 19 I remember my affliction and my wandering, 22 Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, 25 The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, 28 Let him sit alone in silence, 31 For no one is cast off 34 To crush underfoot 37 Who can speak and have it happen 40 Let us examine our ways and test them, 43 “You have covered yourself with anger and pursued us; 46 “All our enemies have opened their mouths 49 My eyes will flow unceasingly, 52 Those who were my enemies without cause 55 I called on your name, Lord, 58 You, Lord, took up my case; 61 Lord, you have heard their insults, 64 Pay them back what they deserve, Lord, Footnotes:
