New Testament

Lamentations 3:7-12 Amplified Bible (AMP)

7. He walled me in so that I cannot get out; He has weighted down my chain.

8. Even when I cry and shout for help, He shuts out my prayer.

9. He has enclosed my ways with hewn stone; He has made my paths crooked.

10. He is to me like a bear lying in wait, and like a lion [hiding] in secret places.

11. He has turned me off my ways and pulled me in pieces; He has made me desolate.

12. He has bent His bow and set me as a mark for the arrow.
