Lamentations 3:56 Context

◄ Lamentations 3:56 ►

You heard my plea: "Do not ignore my cry for relief."

Context

56You have heard my voice,
“Do not hide Your ear from my prayer for relief,
From my cry for help.”

57You drew near when I called on You;
You said, “Do not fear!”

58O Lord, You have pleaded my soul’s cause;
You have redeemed my life.

59O LORD, You have seen my oppression;
Judge my case.

60You have seen all their vengeance,
All their schemes against me.

61You have heard their reproach, O LORD,
All their schemes against me.

62The lips of my assailants and their whispering
Are against me all day long.

63Look on their sitting and their rising;
I am their mocking song.

64You will recompense them, O LORD,
According to the work of their hands.

65You will give them hardness of heart,
Your curse will be on them.

66You will pursue them in anger and destroy them
From under the heavens of the LORD!
