Verse 55

"I called upon thy name, O Jehovah,

out of the lowest dungeon.

Thou heardest my voice;

hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.

Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee;

thou saidst, Fear not.

Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul;

thou hast redeemed my life.

O Jehovah, thou hast seen my wrong;

judge thou my cause.

Thou hast seen all their vengeance

and all their devices against me."

This whole paragraph is an eloquent summary of all the trials of Jeremiah under Zedekiah, and still later, after the fall of Jerusalem, when the remnant of the city rejected his counsel.
