Lam. 1:20
Behold, O Lord; for I am in distress: my bowels are troubled; mine heart is turned within me; for I have grievously rebelled: abroad the sword bereaveth, at home there is as death.

Lam. 1:22
Let all their wickedness come before thee; and do unto them, as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions: for my sighs are many, and my heart is faint.

Lam. 2:18
Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.

Lam. 2:19
Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.

Lam. 3:41
Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.

Lam. 3:51
Mine eye affecteth mine heart because of all the daughters of my city.

Lam. 3:65
Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.

Lam. 5:15
The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.

Lam. 5:17
For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim.
