Lamentations 3 — Context

Is it not from the mouth of the Most High That both good and ill go forth?

Why should any living mortal, or any man, Offer complaint in view of his sins?

Let us examine and probe our ways, And let us return to the LORD.

We lift up our heart and hands Toward God in heaven;

We have transgressed and rebelled, You have not pardoned.

You have covered Yourself with anger And pursued us; You have slain and have not spared.

You have covered Yourself with a cloud So that no prayer can pass through.
