Lamentations 3:8

Modern King James Version

Also when I cry and shout, He shuts out my prayer.

See the chapter Copy

Behold, I cry out, Violence! And I am not answered. I cry aloud, but there is no justice.

I cried to You, and You did not hear me; I stood up, and You did not consider me.

O my God, I cry in the daytime, but You do not answer; and in the night, and am not silent.

O Jehovah, the God of Hosts, how long will You be angry against the prayer of Your people?

You have wrapped Yourself with anger and pursued us; You have slain; You have not pitied.

You have wrapped Yourself with a cloud from any prayer passing through.

O Jehovah, until when shall I cry and You will not hear? I cry out to You of violence, and You do not save!

And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? That is, My God, My God, why have You forsaken me?

For everyone who asks receives. And he who seeks finds. And to him who knocks it shall be opened.
