LAM-5:1 Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and
behold our reproach.
LAM-5:2 Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to
aliens.
LAM-5:3 We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers [are] as
widows.
LAM-5:4 We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold
unto us.
LAM-5:5 Our necks [are] under persecution: we labour, [and] have
no rest.
LAM-5:6 We have given the hand [to] the Egyptians, [and to] the
Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
LAM-5:7 Our fathers have sinned, [and are] not; and we have
borne their iniquities.
LAM-5:8 Servants have ruled over us: [there is] none that doth
deliver [us] out of their hand.
LAM-5:9 We gat our bread with [the peril of] our lives because
of the sword of the wilderness.
LAM-5:10 Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible
famine.
LAM-5:11 They ravished the women in Zion, [and] the maids in the
cities of Judah.
LAM-5:12 Princes are hanged up by their hand: the faces of
elders were not honoured.
LAM-5:13 They took the young men to grind, and the children fell
under the wood.
LAM-5:14 The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men
from their music.
LAM-5:15 The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned
into mourning.
LAM-5:16 The crown is fallen [from] our head: woe unto us, that
we have sinned!
LAM-5:17 For this our heart is faint; for these [things] our
eyes are dim.
LAM-5:18 Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the
foxes walk upon it.
LAM-5:19 Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from
generation to generation.
LAM-5:20 Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, [and] forsake
us so long time?
LAM-5:21 Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned;
renew our days as of old.
LAM-5:22 But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth
against us.
