5 Remember, O Yahweh, what has happened to us;
look and see our disgrace.
2 Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers;
our houses to foreigners.
3 We have become orphans, there is no father,
and our mothers are like widows.
4 We drink our water with silver;
we bring in our wood with a price.
5 We are pressed on our necks.
We toil; there is no rest for us.
6 We have given a hand to Egypt,
Assyria to satisfy bread.
7 Our fathers sinned; they are no more.
We ourselves bear their iniquities.
8 Slaves rule over us;
there is no one to deliver from their hand.
9 We bring in our bread by our lives,
from the sword blade of the wilderness.
10 Our skin grows hot as an oven,
from the burning of hunger.
11 Women are raped in Zion;
virgins in the cities of Judah.
12 Princes are hung by their hands;
they show no honor to the face of elders.
13 Young men lift the grind stone
and boys stagger with wood.
14 The elders cease from the gate,
the young men from their songs.
15 Our hearts cease from joy;
our dancing has turned to mourning.
16 The crown of our head has fallen.
Woe to us, for we have sinned!
17 On account of this, our hearts have become sick;
on account of these things, our eyes grow dim.
18 On account of Mount Zion, which is desolate, jackals tread over it.
19 You, O Yahweh, are forever.
You will sit upon your throne from generation to generation.
20 Why do you forget us for so long?
You forsake us for many days?
21 Return us to yourself, O Yahweh, and we will be restored.
Renew our days as long ago—
22 unless you have utterly rejected us,
are angry with us beyond measure.
