Lamentations 5:8-16

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.

13The youngH5288 menH5288 bare the mill, and the childrenH5288 stumbledH3782 underH3782 the woodH6086.

14The eldersH2205 have ceased from the gateH8179, the youngH970 menH970 from their musicH5058.

15The joyH4885 of our heartH3820 is ceased; our danceH4234 is turnedH2015 intoH2015 mourningH60.

16The crownH5850 is fallenH5307 from our headH7218: woeH188 unto usH4994! for weH3588 have sinnedH2398.
