1Remember2142, O LORD3068, what is come upon us: consider5027, and behold7200 our reproach2781.
2Our inheritance5159 is turned2015 to strangers2114, our houses1004 to aliens5237.
3We are orphans3490 and fatherless369 1, our mothers517 are as widows490.
4We have drunken8354 our water4325 for money3701; our wood6086 is sold935 4242 unto us.
5Our necks6677 are under persecution7291: we labour3021, and have no rest5117.
6We have given5414 the hand3027 to the Egyptians4714, and to the Assyrians804, to be satisfied7646 with bread3899.
7Our fathers1 have sinned2398, and are not369; and we have borne5445 their iniquities5771.
8Servants5650 have ruled4910 over us: there is none that doth deliver6561 us out of their hand3027.
9We gat935 our bread3899 with the peril of our lives5315 because6440 of the sword2719 of the wilderness4057.
10Our skin5785 was black3648 like an oven8574 because6440 of the terrible2152 famine7458.
11They ravished6031 the women802 in Zion6726, and the maids1330 in the cities5892 of Judah3063.
12Princes8269 are hanged up8518 by their hand3027: the faces6440 of elders2205 were not honoured1921.
13They took5375 the young men970 to grind2911, and the children5288 fell3782 under the wood6086.
14The elders2205 have ceased7673 from the gate8179, the young men970 from their musick5058.
15The joy4885 of our heart3820 is ceased7673; our dance4234 is turned2015 into mourning60.
16The crown5850 is fallen5307 from our head7218: woe188 unto us, that we have sinned2398!
17For this our heart3820 is faint1739; for these things our eyes5869 are dim2821.
18Because of the mountain2022 of Zion6726, which is desolate8074, the foxes7776 walk1980 upon it.
19Thou, O LORD3068, remainest3427 for ever5769; thy throne3678 from generation1755 to generation1755.
20Wherefore dost thou forget7911 us for ever5331, and forsake5800 us so long753 time3117?
21Turn7725 thou us unto thee, O LORD3068, and we shall be turned7725; renew2318 our days3117 as of old6924.
22But thou hast utterly3988 rejected3988 us; thou art very3966 wroth7107 against us.
