Lamentations 4:18 Context
16The anger of the Lord hath diuided them, he will no more regard them: they respected not the persons of the priests, they fauoured not the elders. 17As for vs, our eyes as yet failed for our vaine helpe: in our watching we haue watched for a nation that could not saue vs. 18They hunt our steps that we cannot goe in our streets: our end is neere, our dayes are fulfilled, for our ende is come. 19Our persecutours are swifter then the eagles of the heauen: they pursued vs vpon the mountaines, they laide waite for vs in the wildernesse. 20The breath of our nostrels, the anointed of the Lord was taken in their pits, of whom we said, Under his shadowe we shall liue among the heathen.
