1 I am the man that hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.

1 “I am the man who has experienced suffering under the rod of God’s fury. 

1 I am the man who has seen affliction

under the rod of God’s wrath.

1 I am one who has seen affliction

under the rod of God’s wrath;

1 I am a man who has seen misery,

under the rod of his wrath.

The Lord has used the Babylonians

to punish our people.

Because of the rod of His wrath.
