Lamentations 5 Verses
1
|
Remember, O LORD, what has befallen us; look, and see our disgrace! |
2
|
Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our homes to aliens. |
3
|
We have become orphans, fatherless; our mothers are like widows. |
4
|
We must pay for the water we drink; the wood we get must be bought. |
5
|
With a yoke on our necks we are hard driven; we are weary, we are given no rest. |
6
|
We have made a pact with Egypt and Assyria, to get enough bread. |
7
|
Our ancestors sinned; they are no more, and we bear their iniquities. |
8
|
Slaves rule over us; there is no one to deliver us from their hand. |
9
|
We get our bread at the peril of our lives, because of the sword in the wilderness. |
10
|
Our skin is black as an oven from the scorching heat of famine. |
11
|
Women are raped in Zion, virgins in the towns of Judah. |
12
|
Princes are hung up by their hands; no respect is shown to the elders. |
13
|
Young men are compelled to grind, and boys stagger under loads of wood. |
14
|
The old men have left the city gate, the young men their music. |
15
|
The joy of our hearts has ceased; our dancing has been turned to mourning. |
16
|
The crown has fallen from our head; woe to us, for we have sinned! |
17
|
Because of this our hearts are sick, because of these things our eyes have grown dim: |
18
|
because of Mount Zion, which lies desolate; jackals prowl over it. |
19
|
But you, O LORD, reign forever; your throne endures to all generations. |
20
|
Why have you forgotten us completely? Why have you forsaken us these many days? |
21
|
Restore us to yourself, O LORD, that we may be restored; renew our days as of old-- |
22
|
unless you have utterly rejected us, and are angry with us beyond measure. |
