Lamentations 3:39-42

EasyEnglish Bible

³⁹ He only punishes us when we do wrong things.
We are still alive, so we should not be angry with God.
⁴⁰ Instead, we should think a lot about what we do,
and we should turn back to the Lord again.
⁴¹ We should lift up our hands and pray to God in heaven.^[a]
We should be honest with God and say to him,
⁴² ‘We have done wrong things,
and we have turned against you.
You have not forgiven us.
