Lamentations 1:20-22

English Standard Version

²⁰ “Look, O Lord, for I am in distress;
    ^(A)my stomach churns;
my heart is wrung within me,
    because I have been very rebellious.
^(B)In the street the sword bereaves;
    in the house it is like death.

²¹ “They heard^{[a] (C)}my groaning,
    yet ^(D)there is no one to comfort me.
All my enemies have heard of my trouble;
    ^(E)they are glad that you have done it.
You have brought^[b] the day you announced;
    ^(F)now let them be as I am.

^22 (G)“Let all their evildoing come before you,
    and deal with them
as ^(H)you have dealt with me
    because of all my transgressions;
for ^(I)my groans are many,
    and ^(J)my heart is faint.”
