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