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