Lamentations 3:49-62 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

49. My eye flows down, and ceases not, without any intermission,

50. Till the LORD looks down, and beholds from heaven.

51. My eye affects my heart because of all the daughters of my city.

52. My enemies chased me hard, like a bird, without cause.

53. They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.

54. Waters flowed over my head; then I said, I am cut off.

55. I called upon your name, O LORD, out of the lowest dungeon.

56. You have heard my voice: hide not your ear at my breathing, at my cry.

57. You drew near in the day that I called upon you: you said, Fear not.

58. O Lord, you have pleaded the causes of my soul; you have redeemed my life.

59. O LORD, you have seen my wrong: judge you my cause.

60. You have seen all their vengeance and all their plots against me.

61. You have heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their plots against me;

62. The lips of those that rose up against me, and their whispering against me all the day.
