lesserot@Lamentations:5:1 @ Remember, O Lord, what hath occurred to us, look down, and behold our disgrace.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:2 @ Our inheritance is turned over to strangers, our houses to aliens.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:3 @ Orphans are we become, and without a father, our mothers are like widows.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:4 @ Our water have we drunk for money: our wood cometh to us for a purchase price.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:5 @ Up to our necks are we pursued: we are fatigued, and no rest is allowed us.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:6 @ To Egypt do we stretch out our hand, to Asshur, to be satisfied with bread.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:7 @ Our fathers have sinned, and are no more; but we have indeed to bear their iniquities.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:8 @ Servants rule over us: no one delivereth us out of their hand.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:9 @ At the peril of our life must we bring home our bread, because of the sword of the wilderness.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:10 @ Our skin gloweth like an oven, because of the heat of famine.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:11 @ Women have they ravished in Zion, virgins, in the cities of Judah.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:12 @ Princes were hanged up by their hand: the faces of elders were not honored.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:13 @ Young men they bore to the mill, and boys stumbled under the wood.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:14 @ The elders have ceased from the gate, young men, from their singing.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:15 @ Ceased hath the joy of our heart: our dance is changed into mourning.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:16 @ Fallen is the crown of our head: woe to us, for we have sinned.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:17 @ Because of this is our heart made sick; for these things are our eyes dimmed;

lesserot@Lamentations:5:18 @ Because of the mount of Zion which is wasted, foxes walk about on it.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:19 @ O thou, Lord, wilt truly abide for ever, thy throne existeth throughout all generations.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:20 @ Wherefore wilt thou forget us for ever! wilt thou forsake us for so long a time?

lesserot@Lamentations:5:21 @ Cause us to return, O Lord, unto thee, and we will return: renew our days as of old.

lesserot@Lamentations:5:22 @ For wouldst thou entirely reject us, be wroth with us to the uttermost?
