THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Lamentations (Author Jeremiah)

3:55I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.

3:56Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.

3:57Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.

3:58O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.

3:59O LORD, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.

3:60Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against me.

3:61Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their imaginations against me;

3:62The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.

3:63Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their musick.

3:64Render unto them a recompence, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.

3:65Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.

3:66Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD.
