5. Lamentations 3:1-26 Iam the man who has seen affliction by the rod of His wrath.//He has led me and made me walk//In darkness and not in light.//Surely He has turned His hand against me//Time and time again throughout the day.//He has aged my flesh and my skin,//And broken my bones.//He has besieged me//And surrounded me with bitterness and woe.//He has set me in dark places//Like the dead of long ago.//He has hedged me in so that I cannot get out;//He has made my chain heavy.//Even when Icry and shout,//He shuts out my prayer.//He has blocked my ways with hewn stone;//He has made my paths crooked.// He has been to me a bear lying in wait,//Like a lion in ambush.//He has turned aside my ways and torn me in pieces;//He has made me desolate.//He has bent His bow//And set me up as a target for the arrow.//He has caused the arrows of His quiver//To pierce my loins.//Ihave become the ridicule of all my people—//Their taunting song all the day.//He has filled me with bitterness,//He has made me drink wormwood.//He has also broken my teeth with gravel,//And covered me with ashes.//You have moved my soul far from peace;//Ihave forgotten prosperity.//And Isaid, “My strength and my hope//Have perished from the Lord.”//Remember my affliction and roaming,//The wormwood and the gall.//My soul still remembers//And sinks within me.//This I recall to my mind,//Therefore I have hope.//Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed,//Because His compassions fail not.//They are new every morning;//Great is Your faithfulness.//“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,//“Therefore I hope in Him!”//The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,//To the soul who seeks Him.//It is good that one should hope and wait quietly//For the salvation of the Lord.
