1 Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach. Cross refs
2 Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens. Cross refs
3 We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows. Cross refs
4 We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us. Cross refs
5 Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest. Cross refs
6 We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread. Cross refs
7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities. Cross refs
8 Servants have ruled over us: there is none that doth deliver us out of their hand. Cross refs
9 We gat our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness. Cross refs
10 Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine. Cross refs
11 They ravished the women in Zion, and the maids in the cities of Judah. Cross refs
12 Princes are hanged up by their hand: the faces of elders were not honoured. Cross refs
13 They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood. Cross refs
14 The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their musick. Cross refs
15 The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning. Cross refs
16 The crown is fallen from our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned! Cross refs
17 For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim. Cross refs
18 Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it. Cross refs
19 Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation. Cross refs
20 Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time? Cross refs
21 Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old. Cross refs
22 But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us. Cross refs
