Lamentations 3:8-10
Expanded Bible

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

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