The King James Version Bible

Lamentations 3:9-15

  1. He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.

  2. He was unto me as a bear lying in wait, and as a lion in secret places.

  3. He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he hath made me desolate.

  4. He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

  5. He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.

  6. I was a derision to all my people; and their song all the day.

  7. He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood.
