  • 1 Remember, O Lord , what has befallen us; look, and see our disgrace!
  • 2 Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our homes to foreigners.
  • 3 We have become orphans, fatherless; our mothers are like widows.
  • 4 We must pay for the water we drink; the wood we get must be bought.
  • 5 Our pursuers are at our necks; we are weary; we are given no rest.
  • 6 We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Assyria, to get bread enough.
  • 7 Our fathers sinned, and are no more; and we bear their iniquities.
  • 8 Slaves rule over us; there is none to deliver us from their hand.
  • 9 We get our bread at the peril of our lives, because of the sword in the wilderness.
  • 10 Our skin is hot as an oven with the burning heat of famine.
  • 11 Women are raped in Zion, young women in the towns of Judah.
  • 12 Princes are hung up by their hands; no respect is shown to the elders.
  • 13 Young men are compelled to grind at the mill, and boys stagger under loads of wood.
  • 14 The old men have left the city gate, the young men their music.
  • 15 The joy of our hearts has ceased; our dancing has been turned to mourning.
  • 16 The crown has fallen from our head; woe to us, for we have sinned!
  • 17 For this our heart has become sick, for these things our eyes have grown dim,
  • 18 for Mount Zion which lies desolate; jackals prowl over it.
  • 19 But you, O Lord , reign forever; your throne endures to all generations.
  • 20 Why do you forget us forever, why do you forsake us for so many days?
  • 21 Restore us to yourself, O Lord , that we may be restored! Renew our days as of old—
  • 22 unless you have utterly rejected us, and you remain exceedingly angry with us.
