Back to passage

They said to me,“The remnant that remains from the exile there in the province are experiencing considerable adversity and reproach. The wall of Jerusalem lies breached, and its gates have been burned down!”

Hear, O our God, for we are despised! Return their reproach on their own head! Reduce them to plunder in a land of exile!

Job 10:9 TSK

Remember that you have made me as with the clay; will you return me to dust?

How long, O God, will the adversary hurl insults? Will the enemy blaspheme your name forever?

We have become an object of disdain to our neighbors; those who live on our borders taunt and insult us.

Take note, O Lord, of the way your servants are taunted, and of how I must bear so many insults from people!

I said,“LORD, you know how I suffer. Take thought of me and care for me. Pay back for me those who have been persecuting me. Do not be so patient with them that you allow them to kill me. Be mindful of how I have put up with their insults for your sake.

ט(Tet) Her menstrual flow has soiled her clothing; she did not consider the consequences of her sin. Her demise was astonishing, and there was no one to comfort her. She cried,“Look, O LORD, on my affliction because my enemy boasts!”

ר(Resh) Look, O LORD! I am distressed; my stomach is in knots! My heart is pounding inside me. Yes, I was terribly rebellious! Out in the street the sword bereaves a mother of her children; Inside the house death is present.

ר(Resh)Jerusalem Speaks: Look, O LORD! Consider! Whom have you ever afflicted like this? Should women eat their offspring, their healthy infants? Should priest and prophet be killed in the Lord’s sanctuary?

ש(Sin/Shin) You have heard their taunts, O LORD, all their plots against me.

Then he said,“Jesus, remember me when you come in your kingdom.”
