Lamentations 3:16 in Context — Lamentations 3
14 Fuí escarnio á todo mi pueblo, canción de ellos todos los días.
15 Hartóme de amarguras, embriagóme de ajenjos.
16 Quebróme los dientes con cascajo, cubrióme de ceniza.
17 Y mi alma se alejó de la paz, olvidéme del bien.
18 Y dije: Pereció mi fortaleza, y mi esperanza de Jehová.
