Lamentations 3:13-18 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

13. He pierced my kidneyswith shafts from his quiver.

14. I have become a laughingstock to all my people,their taunt all day long;

15. He has sated me with bitterness,filled me with wormwood.

16. He has made me eat gravel,trampled me into the dust;

17. My life is deprived of peace,I have forgotten what happiness is;

18. My enduring hope, I said,has perished before the Lord.
