Lamentations 1:8-14, Deuteronomy 30:3-10.

Lamentations 1:8-14.

8 Jerusalem has grievously sinned; therefore she has become as an unclean thing; all who honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yes, she sighs, and turns backward.
9 Her filthiness was in her skirts; she didn’t remember her latter end; therefore is she come down wonderfully; she has no comforter: see, YHWH, my affliction; for the enemy has magnified himself.
10 The adversary has spread out his hand on all her pleasant things: for she has seen that the nations are entered into her sanctuary, concerning whom you commanded that they should not enter into your assembly.
11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for food to refresh the soul: look, YHWH, and see; for I am become abject.
12 Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look, and see if there be any sorrow like my sorrow, which is brought on me, With which YHWH has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
13 From on high has he sent fire into my bones, and it prevails against them; He has spread a net for my feet, he has turned me back: He has made me desolate and faint all the day.
14 The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand; They are knit together, they have come up on my neck; he has made my strength to fail: ADONAI has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.

But The Most High transforms defeats into Victory:

Deuteronomy 30:3-10.

3 that then YHWH your ELOHIM will turn your captivity, and have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples, where YHWH your ELOHIM has scattered you.
4 If your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of the heavens, from there will YHWH your ELOHIM gather you, and from there he will bring you back:
5 and YHWH your ELOHIM will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you shall possess it; and he will do you good, and multiply you above your fathers.
6 YHWH your ELOHIM will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your seed, to love YHWH your ELOHIM with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live.
7 YHWH your ELOHIM will put all these curses on your enemies, and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
8 You shall return and obey the voice of YHWH, and do all his commandments which I command you this day.
9 YHWH your ELOHIM will make you plenteous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, and in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, for good: for YHWH will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers;
10 if you shall obey the voice of YHWH your ELOHIM, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this scroll of the Torah; if you turn to YHWH your ELOHIM with all your heart, and with all your soul.
