Lamentations 5:6-12

6We have givenH5414 the handH3027 to the EgyptiansH4713, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfiedH7646 with breadH3899.

7Our fathersH1 have sinnedH2398, and are notH369; and weH587 have borneH5445 their iniquitiesH5771.

8ServantsH5650 ruleH4910 over usH3027: there is noneH369 to deliverH6561 usH3027 outH3027 of their handH3027.

9WeH5315 getH935 our breadH3899 with the peril of our livesH5315 becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 of the wildernessH4057.

10Our skinH5785 is black like an ovenH8574 becauseH6440 of the burningH2152 heatH2152 of famineH7458.

11They ravished the womenH802 in ZionH6726, the maidensH1330 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.

12PrincesH8269 were hangedH8518 up by their handH3027: the facesH6440 of eldersH2205 were notH3808 honoured.
