New Testament

Lamentations 3:8-13 American Standard Version (ASV)

8. Yea, when I cry, and call for help, he shutteth out my prayer.

9. He hath walled up my ways with hewn stone; he hath made my paths crooked.

10. He is unto me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in secret places.

11. He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he hath made me desolate.

12. He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

13. He hath caused the shafts of his quiver to enter into my reins.
