ULT LAM Chapter 5

LAM 5 ©

5Remember, O Yahweh, what has happened to us;

look and see our disgrace.

2Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers;

our houses to foreigners.

3We have become orphans, there is no father,

and our mothers are like widows.

4We drink our water with silver;

we bring in our wood with a price.

5We are pressed on our necks.

We toil; there is no rest for us.

6We have given a hand to Egypt,

Assyria to satisfy bread.

7Our fathers sinned; they are no more.

We ourselves bear their iniquities.

8Slaves rule over us;

there is no one to deliver from their hand.

9We bring in our bread by our lives,

from the sword blade of the wilderness.

10Our skin grows hot as an oven,

from the burning of hunger.

11Women are raped in Zion;

virgins in the cities of Judah.

12Princes are hung by their hands;

they show no honor to the face of elders.

13Young men lift the grind stone

and boys stagger with wood.

14The elders cease from the gate,

the young men from their songs.

15Our hearts cease from joy;

our dancing has turned to mourning.

16The crown of our head has fallen.

Woe to us, for we have sinned!

17On account of this, our hearts have become sick;

on account of these things, our eyes grow dim.

18On account of Mount Zion, which is desolate, jackals tread over it.

19You, O Yahweh, are forever.

You will sit upon your throne from generation to generation.

20Why do you forget us for so long?

You forsake us for many days?

21Return us to yourself, O Yahweh, and we will be restored.

Renew our days as long ago—

22unless you have utterly rejected us,

are angry with us beyond measure.
