"From on highHe sentfireinto my bones,And it prevailed[over them]. He has spreada netfor my feet;He has turnedme back;He has mademe desolate,Faintalldaylong.
"For he is throwninto the netby his own feet,And he stepson the webbing.
Knowthenthat Godhas wrongedme And has closedHis netaroundme.
"My skinturnsblackon me, And my bonesburnwith fever.
May allwho hateZionBe putto shameand turnedbackward;
The proudhave hiddena trapfor me, and cords;They have spreada netby the wayside;They have setsnaresfor me. Selah.
I am pouredout like water,And allmy bonesare out of joint;My heartis like wax;It is meltedwithinme.
For my lifeis spentwith sorrowAnd my yearswith sighing;My strengthhas failedbecause of my iniquity,And my bodyhas wastedaway.
Let those be ashamedand dishonoredwho seekmy life;Let those be turnedbackand humiliatedwho deviseevilagainst me.
I am benumbedand badlycrushed;I groanbecauseof the agitationof my heart.
You broughtus into the net;You laidan oppressiveburdenupon our loins.
Do not eatanyof it rawor boiledat allwith water,but ratherroastedwith fire,[both] its headand its legsalongwith its entrails.
They will be turnedback[and] be utterlyputto shame,Who trustin idols,Who sayto moltenimages,"You are our gods."
Therefore My wrathand My angerwere pouredout and burnedin the citiesof Judahand in the streetsof Jerusalem,so they havebecomea ruinand a desolationas it is thisday.
"Let alltheir wickednesscomebeforeYou; And dealwith them as You have dealtwith me For allmy transgressions;For my groansare manyand my heartis faint."
He has turnedasidemy waysand tornme to pieces;He has mademe desolate.
Becauseof thisour heartis faint,Becauseof thesethingsour eyesare dim;
"I will also spreadMy netoverhim, and he will be caughtin My snare.And I will bringhim to Babylonin the landof the Chaldeans;yet he will not seeit, though he will diethere.
"I will spreadMy netoverhim, and he will be caughtin My snare.Then I will bringhim to Babylonand enterinto judgmentwith him there[regarding] the unfaithfulactwhichhe has committedagainst Me.
Thussaysthe LordGOD,"Now I will spreadMy netoveryou With a companyof manypeoples,And they shall liftyou up in My net.
Whenthey go,I will spreadMy netoverthem; I will bringthem downlike the birdsof the sky.I will chastisethem in accordance with the proclamationto their assembly.
Whocan standbeforeHis indignation?Whocan endurethe burningof His anger?His wrathis pouredout like fireAnd the rocksare brokenup by Him.
I heardand my inwardpartstrembled,At the soundmy lipsquivered.Decayentersmy bones,And in my placeI tremble.BecauseI must waitquietlyfor the dayof distress,For the peopleto arise[who] will invadeus.
"Among thosenationsyou shall findnorest,and there will be norestingplacefor the soleof your foot;but therethe LORDwill giveyou a tremblingheart,failingof eyes,and despairof soul.
dealingout retributionto thosewho do not knowGodand to thosewho do not obeythe gospelof our LordJesus.
for our Godis a consumingfire.
