21 They hear that I was groaning;
    there is no comforter for me.
All my enemies have heard my misery,
    they are pleased that you have done it.
Bring that day that you have proclaimed,[a]
    And let them be like me.
22 Let all their evil come before you;
    and deal with them
just as you have dealt with me
    because of all my crimes;
for my groaning is much and my heart is faint.

  1. Lamentations 1:21 Or “you have called”

21 They have heard my groaning,
    yet there is no one to comfort me.
All my enemies have heard of my trouble;
    they are glad that You have done it.
Bring the day that You have announced,
    that they become like me.

22 Let all their wickedness come before You,
    and do to them
as You have done to me
    for all my transgressions;
for my groans are many,
    and my heart is faint.
