25:002:017 The lord hath done that which he had
devised; he hath
fulfilled
his word that he had commanded in the days of old:
he
hath thrown down, and hath not pitied: and he
hath caused
thine
enemy to rejoice over thee, he hath set up the horn
of
thine
adversaries.
25:002:018 Their heart cried unto the lord, O
wall of the daughter of
Zion,
let tears run down like a river day and night:
give
thyself
no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
25:002:019 Arise, cry out in the night: in the
beginning of the watches
pour
out thine heart like water before the face of the lord:
lift
up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young
children,
that faint for hunger in the top of every street.
25:002:020 Behold, O lord, and consider to whom
thou hast done this.
Shall
the women eat their fruit, and children of a span long?
shall
the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary
of
the
Lord?
25:002:021 The young and the old lie on the ground
in the streets: my
virgins
and my young men are fallen by the sword; thou hast
slain
them in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, and
not
pitied.
25:002:022 Thou hast called as in a solemn day my
terrors round about, so
that
in the day of the LORD’s anger none escaped nor
remained:
those
that I have swaddled and brought up hath mine enemy
consumed.
25:003:001 I am the man that hath seen affliction
by the rod of his
wrath.
25:003:002 He hath led me, and brought me into darkness,
but not into
light.
25:003:003 Surely against me is he turned; he turneth
his hand against me
all
the day.
25:003:004 My flesh and my skin hath he made old;
he hath broken my
bones.
25:003:005 He hath builded against me, and compassed
me with gall and
travail.
25:003:006 He hath set me in dark places, as they that be dead of old.
25:003:007 He hath hedged me about, that I cannot
get out: he hath made
my
chain heavy.
25:003:008 Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
25:003:009 He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone,
he hath made my
paths
crooked.
25:003:010 He was unto me as a bear lying in wait,
and as a lion in
secret
places.
25:003:011 He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled
me in pieces: he hath
made
me desolate.
25:003:012 He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
25:003:013 He hath caused the arrows of his quiver
to enter into my
reins.
