Lamentations 5:2-7

2Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our homes to foreigners.

3We have become orphans, fatherless; our mothers are like widows.

4We must pay for the water we drink; the wood we get must be bought.

5Our pursuers are at our necks; we are weary; we are given no rest.

6We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Assyria, to get bread enough.

7Our fathers sinned, and are no more; and we bear their iniquities.
