1Remember <02142> (8798)_, O LORD <03068>_, what is come upon us: consider <05027> (8685)_, and behold <07200> (8798) our reproach <02781>_.
2Our inheritance <05159> is turned <02015> (8738) to strangers <02114> (8801)_, our houses <01004> to aliens <05237>_.
3We are orphans <03490> and fatherless <0369> <01>_, our mothers <0517> [are] as widows <0490>_.
4We have drunken <08354> (8804) our water <04325> for money <03701>_; our wood <06086> is sold <0935> (8799) <04242> unto us. {is...: Heb. cometh for price}
5Our necks <06677> [are] under persecution <07291> (8738)_: we labour <03021> (8804)_, [and] have no rest <05117> (8717)_. {Our...: Heb. On our necks are we persecuted}
6We have given <05414> (8804) the hand <03027> [to] the Egyptians <04714>_, [and to] the Assyrians <0804>_, to be satisfied <07646> (8800) with bread <03899>_.
7Our fathers <01> have sinned <02398> (8804)_, [and are] not <0369>_; and we have borne <05445> (8804) their iniquities <05771>_.
8Servants <05650> have ruled <04910> (8804) over us: [there is] none that doth deliver <06561> (8802) [us] out of their hand <03027>_.
9We gat <0935> (8686) our bread <03899> with [the peril of] our lives <05315> because <06440> of the sword <02719> of the wilderness <04057>_.
10Our skin <05785> was black <03648> (8738) like an oven <08574> because <06440> of the terrible <02152> famine <07458>_. {terrible: or, terrors, or, storms}
11They ravished <06031> (8765) the women <0802> in Zion <06726>_, [and] the maids <01330> in the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>_.
12Princes <08269> are hanged up <08518> (8738) by their hand <03027>_: the faces <06440> of elders <02205> were not honoured <01921> (8738)_.
13They took <05375> (8804) the young men <0970> to grind <02911>_, and the children <05288> fell <03782> (8804) under the wood <06086>_.
14The elders <02205> have ceased <07673> (8804) from the gate <08179>_, the young men <0970> from their musick <05058>_.
15The joy <04885> of our heart <03820> is ceased <07673> (8804)_; our dance <04234> is turned <02015> (8738) into mourning <060>_.
16The crown <05850> is fallen <05307> (8804) [from] our head <07218>_: woe <0188> unto us, that we have sinned <02398> (8804)_! {The...: Heb. The crown of our head is fallen}
17For this our heart <03820> is faint <01739>_; for these [things] our eyes <05869> are dim <02821> (8804)_.
18Because of the mountain <02022> of Zion <06726>_, which is desolate <08074> (8804)_, the foxes <07776> walk <01980> (8765) upon it.
19Thou, O LORD <03068>_, remainest <03427> (8799) for ever <05769>_; thy throne <03678> from generation <01755> to generation <01755>_.
20Wherefore dost thou forget <07911> (8799) us for ever <05331>_, [and] forsake <05800> (8799) us so long <0753> time <03117>_? {so...: Heb. for length of days?}
21Turn <07725> (8685) thou us unto thee, O LORD <03068>_, and we shall be turned <07725> (8799)_; renew <02318> (8761) our days <03117> as of old <06924>_.
22But thou hast utterly <03988> (8800) rejected <03988> (8804) us; thou art very <03966> wroth <07107> (8804) against us. {But...: or, For wilt thou utterly reject us?}
