American Standard Version
"Yea, when I cry, and call for help, he shutteth out my prayer. "
— Lamentations 3:8, American Standard Version
“Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.”
“Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.”
“Also, when I cry out desperately for help, he has shut out my prayer.”
“Ghimel. Yea, and when I cry, and entreat, he hath shut out my prayer.”
“Even when I send up a cry for help, he keeps my prayer shut out.”
“Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.”
He hath builded against me, and compassed me with gall and travail.
He hath made me to dwell in dark places, as those that have been long dead.
He hath walled me about, that I cannot go forth; he hath made my chain heavy.
Yea, when I cry, and call for help, he shutteth out my prayer.
He hath walled up my ways with hewn stone; he hath made my paths crooked.
He is unto me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in secret places.
He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he hath made me desolate.
