Lamentations 5:19 Context
17For this our heart is faint, for these things our eyes are dimme. 18Because of the mountaine of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walke vpon it. 19Thou, O Lord, remainest for euer: thy throne from generation to generation. 20Wherefore doest thou forget vs for euer, and forsake vs so long time? 21Turne thou vs vnto thee, O Lord, and we shall be turned: renew our dayes as of old.
