Lamentations 5:6-12

6We have given our hand to the Egyptians And the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.

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

8Servants rule over us; There is none to deliver us from their hand.

9We get our bread at the risk of our lives, Because of the sword in the wilderness.

10Our skin is hot as an oven, Because of the fever of famine.

11They ravished the women in Zion, The maidens in the cities of Judah.

12Princes were hung up by their hands, And elders were not respected.
