Lamentations 5:2-7

2Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.

3We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.

4We drank our water for money; our wood is sold to us.1

5Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.2

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

7Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
