Lamentations 3:6-10 Good News Bible (GNB)

6. He has forced me to live in the stagnant darkness of death.

7. He has bound me in chains; I am a prisoner with no hope of escape.

8. I cry aloud for help, but God refuses to listen;

9. I stagger as I walk; stone walls block me wherever I turn.

10. He waited for me like a bear; he pounced on me like a lion.
