43. "You have covered yourself with the cloud of your anger. You have chased us. You have killed our people without pity.
44. You have covered yourself with the cloud of your anger. Our prayers can't get through to you.
45. You have made us become like trash and garbage among the nations.
46. "All of our enemies have opened their mouths wide to swallow us up.
47. We are terrified and trapped. We are broken and destroyed."
48. Streams of tears flow from my eyes. That's because my people are destroyed.
49. Tears will never stop flowing from my eyes. My eyes can't get any rest.
50. I'll sob until the Lord looks down from heaven. I'll cry until he notices my tears.
51. What I see brings pain to my spirit. All of the people in my city are suffering so much.
52. Those who were my enemies for no reason at all hunted me down as if I were a bird.
