Lamentations 3:52-62

52 My enemies, whom I have never harmed, hunted me down like a bird.
53 They threw me into a pit and dropped stones on me.
54 The water rose over my head, and I cried out, “This is the end!”
55 But I called on your name, LORD, from deep within the pit.
56 You heard me when I cried, “Listen to my pleading! Hear my cry for help!”
57 Yes, you came when I called; you told me, “Do not fear.”
58 Lord, you are my lawyer! Plead my case! For you have redeemed my life.
59 You have seen the wrong they have done to me, LORD . Be my judge, and prove me right.
60 You have seen the vengeful plots my enemies have laid against me.
61 LORD, you have heard the vile names they call me. You know all about the plans they have made.
62 My enemies whisper and mutter as they plot against me all day long.
