Lamentations 3:12

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

God took careful aim and shot his arrows

See the chapter Copy

The fearsome arrows of God All-Powerful have filled my soul with their poison.

Why do you watch us so closely? What's it to you, if I sin? Why am I your target and such a heavy burden?

You shot me with your arrows, and you struck me with your hand.

He attacked like an enemy with a bow and arrows, killing our loved ones. He has burnt to the ground the homes on Mount Zion.
