Lamentations 3:54-66

JuliaSmith(i) 54 Waters were spread over my head; I said I was cut off. 55 I called thy name, O Jehovah, in the pit underneath. 56 Thou heardest my voice: thou wilt not hide thine ear at my breathing, at my cry. 57 Thou drewest near in the day I shall call thee: thou saidst, Thou shalt not fear. 58 Thou didst contend, O Jehovah, the contentions of my soul; thou didst redeem my life. 59 Thou sawest, O Jehovah, my bowing down: judge thou my judgment 60 Thou sawest all their vengeance, all their purposes against me. 61 Thou heardest their reproach, O Jehovah, all their purposes against me. 62 The lips of those rising up, and their devices against me all the day. 63 Their sitting and their rising, look thou: I their song. 64 Thou wilt turn back to them a retribution, O Jehovah, according to the work Of their hands. 65 Thou wilt give to them a covering of heart, thy curse to them. 66 Thou wilt pursue in thine anger, and thou wilt destroy them from under the heavens, O Jehovah.
