[an error occurred while processing this directive]King James Bible
1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1I am the man that hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2He hath led me, and brought me into darkness, but not into light.
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3Surely against me is he turned; he turneth his hand against me all the day.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4My flesh and my skin hath he made old; he hath broken my bones.
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5He hath builded against me, and compassed me with gall and travail.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6He hath set me in dark places, as they that be dead of old.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10He was unto me as a bear lying in wait, and as a lion in secret places.
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he hath made me desolate.
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14I was a derision to all my people; and their song all the day.
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood.
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25[an error occurred while processing this directive]25The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
26[an error occurred while processing this directive]26It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.
27[an error occurred while processing this directive]27It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
28[an error occurred while processing this directive]28He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne it upon him.
29[an error occurred while processing this directive]29He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.
30[an error occurred while processing this directive]30He giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.
31[an error occurred while processing this directive]31For the Lord will not cast off for ever:
32[an error occurred while processing this directive]32But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
33[an error occurred while processing this directive]33For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
34[an error occurred while processing this directive]34To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,
35[an error occurred while processing this directive]35To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,
36[an error occurred while processing this directive]36To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.
37[an error occurred while processing this directive]37Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
38[an error occurred while processing this directive]38Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?
39[an error occurred while processing this directive]39Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
40[an error occurred while processing this directive]40Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.
41[an error occurred while processing this directive]41Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.
42[an error occurred while processing this directive]42We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.
43[an error occurred while processing this directive]43Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.
44[an error occurred while processing this directive]44Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass through.
45[an error occurred while processing this directive]45Thou hast made us as the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.
46[an error occurred while processing this directive]46All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.
47[an error occurred while processing this directive]47Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction.
48[an error occurred while processing this directive]48Mine eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49[an error occurred while processing this directive]49Mine eye trickleth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
50[an error occurred while processing this directive]50Till the LORD look down, and behold from heaven.
51[an error occurred while processing this directive]51Mine eye affecteth mine heart because of all the daughters of my city.
52[an error occurred while processing this directive]52Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause.
53[an error occurred while processing this directive]53They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.
54[an error occurred while processing this directive]54Waters flowed over mine head; then I said, I am cut off.
55[an error occurred while processing this directive]55I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.
56[an error occurred while processing this directive]56Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.
57[an error occurred while processing this directive]57Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.
58[an error occurred while processing this directive]58O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
59[an error occurred while processing this directive]59O LORD, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.
60[an error occurred while processing this directive]60Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against me.
61[an error occurred while processing this directive]61Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their imaginations against me;
62[an error occurred while processing this directive]62The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
63[an error occurred while processing this directive]63Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their musick.
64[an error occurred while processing this directive]64Render unto them a recompence, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.
65[an error occurred while processing this directive]65Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.
66[an error occurred while processing this directive]66Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD.
