Lamentations 3:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸I cry out and beg for help,
but he ·ignores [obstructs] my prayer.
⁹He ·blocked [^Lwalled in] my way with ·a stone wall [^Lcut stones]
and ·led me in the wrong direction [^Ltwisted my paths; Job 19:7–12].

¹⁰He is like a bear ready to ·attack [ambush] me,
like a lion in hiding [Hos. 13:8; Amos 5:19].
