Lamentations 1:14

Back to Verses

The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand: they are wreathed, and come up upon my neck: he hath made my strength to fall, the LORD hath delivered me into their hands, from whom I am not able to rise up.

God's hand has placed the burden of my sins on me, like a heavy rope around my neck. He has made me weak and given me to those who sin against me. The Lord has let them defeat me, and I can't escape their power.
