V.1 I [am] the man 1397 [that] hath seen 7200-1 affliction 6040 by the rod 7626 of his wrath. 5678

3:2 He hath led 5090-1 me, and brought 3212-55 [me into] darkness, 2822 but not [into] light. 216

3:3 Surely against me is he turned; 7725-4 he turneth 2015-4 his hand 3027 [against me] all the day. 3117

3:4 My flesh 1320 and my skin 5785 hath he made old; 1086-14 he hath broken 7665-14 my bones. 6106

3:5 He hath builded 1129-1 against me, and compassed 5362-55 [me] with gall 7219 and travail. 8513

3:6 He hath set 3427-52 me in dark places, 4285 as [they that be] dead 4191-5 of old. 5769

3:7 He hath hedged 1443-1 me about, that I cannot get out: 3318-4 he hath made my chain 5178 heavy. 3513-52

3:8 Also when I cry 2199-4 and shout, 7768-17 he shutteth out 5640-1 my prayer. 8605

3:9 He hath inclosed 1443-1 my ways 1870 with hewn stone, 1496 he hath made my paths 5410 crooked. 5753-14

3:10 He [was] unto me [as] a bear 1677 lying in wait, 693-6 [and as] a lion 738 in secret places. 4565

3:11 He hath turned aside 5493-31 my ways, 1870 and pulled me in pieces: 6582-17 he hath made 7760-1 me desolate. 8074-6

3:12 He hath bent 1869-1 his bow, 7198 and set 5324-55 me as a mark 4307 for the arrow. 2671

3:13 He hath caused the arrows 1121 of his quiver 827 to enter 935-52 into my reins. 3629

3:14 I was a derision 7814 to all my people; 5971 [and] their song 5058 all the day. 3117

3:15 He hath filled 7646-52 me with bitterness, 4844 he hath made me drunken 7301-52 with wormwood. 3939

3:16 He hath also broken 1638-55 my teeth 8127 with gravel stones, 2687 he hath covered 3728-52 me with ashes. 665

3:17 And thou hast removed my soul 5315 far off 2186-4 from peace: 7965 I forgat 5382-1 prosperity. 2896

3:18 And I said, 559-4 My strength 5331 and my hope 8431 is perished 6-1 from the LORD: 3068

3:19 Remembering 2142-3 mine affliction 6040 and my misery, 4788 the wormwood 3939 and the gall. 7219

3:20 My soul 5315 hath [them] still 2142-2 in remembrance, 2142-4 and is humbled 7743-55 in me.

3:21 This I recall 7725-55 to my mind, 3820 therefore have I hope. 3176-55

3:22 [It is of] the LORD'S 3068 mercies 2617 that we are not consumed, 8552-1 because his compassions 7356 fail 3615-1 not.

3:23 [They are] new 2319 every morning: 1242 great 7227 [is] thy faithfulness. 530

3:24 The LORD 3068 [is] my portion, 2506 saith 559-1 my soul; 5315 therefore will I hope 3176-55 in him.

3:25 The LORD 3068 [is] good 2896 unto them that wait 6960-6 for him, to the soul 5315 [that] seeketh 1875-4 him.

3:26 [It is] good 2896 that [a man] should both hope 3175|2342-4-k and quietly wait 1748 for the salvation 8668 of the LORD. 3068

3:27 [It is] good 2896 for a man 1397 that he bear 5375-4 the yoke 5923 in his youth. 5271

3:28 He sitteth 3427-4 alone 910 and keepeth silence, 1826-4 because he hath borne 5190-1 [it] upon him.

3:29 He putteth 5414-4 his mouth 6310 in the dust; 6083 if so be there may be 3426 hope. 8615

3:30 He giveth 5414-4 [his] cheek 3895 to him that smiteth 5221-56 him: he is filled 7646-4 full with reproach. 2781

3:31 For the Lord 136 will not cast off 2186-4 for ever: 5769

3:32 But though he cause grief, 3013-52 yet will he have compassion 7355-14 according to the multitude 7230 of his mercies. 2617

3:33 For he doth not afflict 6031-14 willingly 3820 nor grieve 3013-17 the children 1121 of men. 376

3:34 To crush 1792-15 under his feet 7272 all the prisoners 615 of the earth, 776

3:35 To turn aside 5186-53 the right 4941 of a man 1397 before the face 6440 of the most High, 5945

3:36 To subvert 5791-15 a man 120 in his cause, 7379 the Lord 136 approveth 7200-1 not.

3:37 Who [is] he [that] saith, 559-1 and it cometh to pass, [when] the Lord 136 commandeth 6680-14 [it] not?

3:38 Out of the mouth 6310 of the most High 5945 proceedeth 3318-4 not evil 7451 and good? 2896

3:39 Wherefore doth a living 2416 man 120 complain, 596-101 a man 1397 for the punishment of his sins? 2399

3:40 Let us search 2664-4 and try 2713-4 our ways, 1870 and turn again 7725-4 to the LORD. 3068

3:41 Let us lift up 5375-4 our heart 3824 with [our] hands 3709 unto God 410 in the heavens. 8064

3:42 We 5168 have transgressed 6586-1 and have rebelled: 4784-1 thou hast not pardoned. 5545-1

3:43 Thou hast covered 5526-1 with anger, 639 and persecuted 7291-4 us: thou hast slain, 2026-1 thou hast not pitied. 2550-1

3:44 Thou hast covered 5526-1 thyself with a cloud, 6051 that [our] prayer 8605 should not pass through. 5674-2

3:45 Thou hast made 7760-4 us [as] the offscouring 5501 and refuse 3973 in the midst 7130 of the people. 5971

3:46 All our enemies 341-6 have opened 6475-1 their mouths 6310 against us.

3:47 Fear 6343 and a snare 6354 is come upon us, desolation 7612 and destruction. 7667

3:48 Mine eye 5869 runneth down 3381-4 with rivers 6388 of water 4325 for the destruction 7667 of the daughter 1323 of my people. 5971

3:49 Mine eye 5869 trickleth down, 5064-8 and ceaseth 1820-4 not, without any intermission, 2014

3:50 Till the LORD 3068 look down, 8259-55 and behold 7200-4 from heaven. 8064

3:51 Mine eye 5869 affecteth 5953-22 mine heart 5315 because of all the daughters 1323 of my city. 5892

3:52 Mine enemies 341-6 chased 6679-1 me sore, 6679-2 like a bird, 6833 without cause. 2600

3:53 They have cut off 6789-1 my life 2416 in the dungeon, 953 and cast 3034-17 a stone 68 upon me.

3:54 Waters 4325 flowed 6687-1 over mine head; 7218 [then] I said, 559-1 I am cut off. 1504-8

3:55 I called 7121-1 upon thy name, 8034 O LORD, 3068 out of the low 8482 dungeon. 953

3:56 Thou hast heard 8085-1 my voice: 6963 hide 5956-55 not thine ear 241 at my breathing, 7309 at my cry. 7775

3:57 Thou drewest near 7126-1 in the day 3117 [that] I called 7121-4 upon thee: thou saidst, 559-1 Fear 3372-4 not.

3:58 O Lord, 136 thou hast pleaded 7378-1 the causes 7379 of my soul; 5315 thou hast redeemed 1350-1 my life. 2416

3:59 O LORD, 3068 thou hast seen 7200-1 my wrong: 5792 judge 8199-3 thou my cause. 4941

3:60 Thou hast seen 7200-1 all their vengeance 5360 [and] all their imaginations 4284 against me.

3:61 Thou hast heard 8085-1 their reproach, 2781 O LORD, 3068 [and] all their imaginations 4284 against me;

3:62 The lips 8193 of those that rose up 6965-5 against me, and their device 1902 against me all the day. 3117

3:63 Behold 5027-54 their sitting down, 3427-2 and their rising up; 7012 I [am] their musick. 4485

3:64 Render 7725-55 unto them a recompence, 1576 O LORD, 3068 according to the work 4639 of their hands. 3027

3:65 Give 5414-4 them sorrow 4044 of heart, 3820 thy curse 8381 unto them.
