Lamentations 5




updv@Lamentations:5:1 @ Remember, O Yahweh, what has come upon us: Look, and see our reproach.

updv@Lamentations:5:2 @ Our inheritance has turned to strangers, Our houses to aliens.

updv@Lamentations:5:3 @ We are orphans and fatherless; Our mothers are as widows.

updv@Lamentations:5:4 @ We have drank our water for money; Our wood is sold to us.

updv@Lamentations:5:5 @ Our pursuers are on our necks: We are weary, and have no rest.

updv@Lamentations:5:6 @ We have given the hand to the Egyptians, And to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.

updv@Lamentations:5:7 @ Our fathers sinned, and are not; And we have borne their iniquities.

updv@Lamentations:5:8 @ Slaves rule over us: There is none to deliver us out of their hand.

updv@Lamentations:5:9 @ We get our bread at the peril of our lives, Because of the sword of the wilderness.

updv@Lamentations:5:10 @ Our skin is black like an oven, Because of the burning heat of famine.

updv@Lamentations:5:11 @ They humbled the women in Zion, The virgins in the cities of Judah.

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

updv@Lamentations:5:13 @ The young men bore the mill; And the children stumbled under the wood.

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

updv@Lamentations:5:15 @ The joy of our heart has ceased; Our dance has turned into mourning.

updv@Lamentations:5:16 @ The crown has fallen from our head: Woe to us! For we have sinned.

updv@Lamentations:5:17 @ For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim;

updv@Lamentations:5:18 @ For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate: The foxes walk on it.

updv@Lamentations:5:19 @ You, O Yahweh, remain forever; Your throne is from generation to generation.

updv@Lamentations:5:20 @ Why do you forget us forever, [And] forsake us so long time?

updv@Lamentations:5:21 @ Turn us to you, O Yahweh, and we will be turned; Renew our days as of old.

updv@Lamentations:5:22 @ But you have completely rejected us; You are very angry against us.
