Lamentations 3:55-66 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

55. I called on Your Name, O יהוה, from the lowest pit.

56. You have heard my voice, Do not hide Your ear from my groaning, From my outcry!

57. You drew near on the day I called on You; You said, “Do not fear!”

58. O יהוה, You did plead the case for my being; You have redeemed my life.

59. O יהוה, You have seen my oppression; Judge my case.

60. You have seen all their vengeance, All their plans against me.

61. You have heard their reproach, O יהוה, all their plans against me,

62. The lips of those rising against me, And their scheming against me all the day.

63. Look at their sitting down and their rising up; I am their song.

64. Repay them, O יהוה, According to the work of their hands.

65. Give them a veiled heart, Your curse upon them!

66. Pursue and destroy them in displeasure, From under the heavens of יהוה.
