Lamentations 3:53 In-Context

51 When I see what's happened to the young women in the city, the pain breaks my heart.
52 "Enemies with no reason to be enemies hunted me down like a bird.
53 They threw me into a pit, then pelted me with stones.
54 Then the rains came and filled the pit. The water rose over my head. I said, 'It's all over.'
55 "I called out your name, O God, called from the bottom of the pit.
