Lamentations 3:39

King James Version

³⁹Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?

⁴⁰Let us examine our ways and test them,^(A)
and let us return to the Lord.^(B)

⁴⁰Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the Lord.

²¹God made him who had no sin^(A) to be sin^[a] for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.^(B)

²¹For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
