Lamentations 3:1-6

Wycliffe WYC

1 I am a man seeing my poverty in the rod of his indignation. (I am a man who seeth my poverty, I have felt the rod of his indignation, or of his anger.)

2 He drove me, and brought (me) into darknesses, and not into light.

3 Only he turned into me, and turned together his hand all day. (He turned only against me, and he turned his hand against me all day long.)

4 He made eld my skin, and my flesh; he all-brake my bones. (He made old, or wasted, my skin, and my flesh; he broke all my bones.)

5 He builded in my compass, and he compassed me with gall and travail. (He built all around me, yea, he surrounded me with gall and tribulation.)

6 He setted me in dark places, as everlasting dead men. (He put me in dark places, like the everlasting dead.)

New International Version NIV

1 I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of the LORD’s wrath.

2 He has driven me away and made me walk in darkness rather than light;

3 indeed, he has turned his hand against me again and again, all day long.

4 He has made my skin and my flesh grow old and has broken my bones.

5 He has besieged me and surrounded me with bitterness and hardship.

6 He has made me dwell in darkness like those long dead.
