Lamentations 4:17-20 Whiles we waited for our vaine helpe, our eyes failed: for in our waiting we looked for a nation that could not saue vs.

Geneva⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Whiles we waited for our vaine helpe, our eyes failed: for in our waiting we looked for a nation that could not saue vs. ¹⁸ They hunt our steppes that we cannot goe in our streetes: our ende is neere, our dayes are fulfilled, for our ende is come. ¹⁹ Our persecuters are swifter then the eagles of the heauen: they pursued vs vpon the mountaines, and layed waite for vs in the wildernes. ²⁰ The breath of our nostrels, the Anoynted of the Lord was taken in their nets, of whome we sayde, Vnder his shadowe we shalbe preserued aliue among the heathen.
