- 1. I am the man that hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
- 2. He hath led me, and brought me into darkness, but not into light.
- 3. Surely against me is he turned; he turneth his hand against me all the day.
- 4. My flesh and my skin hath he made old: he hath broken my bones.
- 5. He hath builded against me, and compassed me with gall and travail.
- 6. He hath set me in dark places, as they that be dead of old.
- 7. He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.
- 8. Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
- 9. He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
- 10. He was unto me as a bear lying in wait, and as a lion in secret places.
- 11. He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he hath made me desolate.
- 12. He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
- 13. He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.
- 14. I was a derision to all my people; and their song all the day.
- 15. He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood.
- 16. He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.
- 17. And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.
- 18. And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:
- 19. Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
- 20. My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
- 21. This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
- 22. It is of the LORD
- 23. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
- 24. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
- 25. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
- 26. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.
- 27. It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
- 28. He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne it upon him.
- 29. He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.
- 30. He giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.
- 31. For the Lord will not cast off for ever:
- 32. But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
- 33. For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
- 34. To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,
- 35. To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,
- 36. To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.
- 37. Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
- 38. Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?
- 39. Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
- 40. Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.
- 41. Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.
- 42. We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.
- 43. Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.
- 44. Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass through.
- 45. Thou hast made us as the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.
- 46. All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.
- 47. Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction.
- 48. Mine eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
- 49. Mine eye trickleth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
- 50. Till the LORD look down, and behold from heaven.
- 51. Mine eye affecteth mine heart because of all the daughters of my city.
- 52. Mine enemies chased me sore, 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 mine head; then I said, I am cut off.
- 55. I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.
- 56. Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.
- 57. Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.
- 58. O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
- 59. O LORD, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.
- 60. Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against me.
- 61. Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their imaginations against me;
- 62. The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
- 63. Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their musick.
- 64. Render unto them a recompence, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.
- 65. Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.
- 66. Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD.
