48. Streams of tears flow from my eyesbecause my people are destroyed.ע (Ayin)
49. Tears flow from my eyes and will not stop;there will be no break
50. until the Lord looks down from heaven and sees what has happened.
51. What my eyes see grieves me – all the suffering of the daughters in my city.צ (Tsade)
52. For no good reason my enemieshunted me down like a bird.
53. They shut me up in a pitand threw stones at me.
54. The waters closed over my head;I thought I was about to die.ק (Qof)
55. I have called on your name, O Lord,from the deepest pit.
