Lamentations 3:52-62

TMB

NIV

52 Mine enemies chased me sorely like a bird, without cause.
52 Those who were my enemies without cause hunted me like a bird.
53 They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.
53 They tried to end my life in a pit and threw stones at me;
54 Waters flowed over mine head; then I said, "I am cut off!"
54 the waters closed over my head, and I thought I was about to perish.
55 I called upon Thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.
55 I called on your name, LORD, from the depths of the pit.
56 Thou hast heard my voice: "Hide not Thine ear at my breathing, at my cry."
56 You heard my plea: “Do not close your ears to my cry for relief.”
57 Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon Thee; Thou saidst, "Fear not."
57 You came near when I called you, and you said, “Do not fear.”
58 O Lord, Thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; Thou hast redeemed my life.
58 You, Lord, took up my case; you redeemed my life.
59 O LORD, Thou hast seen my wrong; judge Thou my cause.
59 LORD, you have seen the wrong done to me. Uphold my cause!
60 Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginings against me.
60 You have seen the depth of their vengeance, all their plots against me.
61 Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their imaginings against me,
61 LORD, you have heard their insults, all their plots against me—
62 the lips of those that rose up against me, and their devices against me all the day.
62 what my enemies whisper and mutter against me all day long.
