Dual Panel1O Lord <03068>, reflect on <02142> what <04100> has happened <01961> to us; consider <05027> and look at <07200> our disgrace <02781>.
2Our inheritance <05159> is turned <02015> over to strangers <02114>; foreigners <05237> now occupy our homes <01004>.
3We have become <01961> fatherless <03490> orphans <0369>; our <01> mothers <0517> have become widows <0490>.
4We must pay money <03701> for our own water <08354>; we must buy <0935> our own wood <06086> at a steep price <04242>.
5We are pursued <07291>– they are breathing down our necks <06677>; we are weary <03021> and have no <03808> rest <05117>.
6We have submitted <03027> <05414> to Egypt <04713> and Assyria <0804> in order to buy <07646> food <03899> to eat.
7Our forefathers <01> sinned <02398> and are dead <0369>, but we <0587> suffer <05445> their punishment <05771>.
8Slaves <05650> rule <04910> over us; there is no <0369> one to rescue <06561> us from their power <03027>.
9At the risk of our lives <05315> we get <0935> our food <03899> because robbers lurk <02719> in the countryside <04057>.
10Our skin <05785> is hot <03648> as an oven <08574> due to <06440> a fever <02152> from hunger <07458>.
11They raped <06031> women <0802> in Zion <06726>, virgins <01330> in the towns <05892> of Judah <03063>.
12Princes <08269> were hung <08518> by <06440> their hands <03027>; elders <02205> were mistreated <01921> <03808>.
13The young men <0970> perform <05375> menial labor <02911>; boys <05288> stagger <03782> from their labor <06086>.
14The elders <02205> are gone from the city gate <08179>; the young men <0970> have stopped <07673> playing their music <05058>.
15Our hearts <03820> no longer <07673> have any joy <04885>; our dancing <04234> is turned <02015> to mourning <060>.
16The crown <05850> has fallen <05307> from our head <07218>; woe <0188> to us, for <03588> we have sinned <02398>!
17Because <05921> of this <02088>, our hearts <03820> are <01961> sick <01739>; because <05921> of these things <0428>, we can hardly see <02821> through our tears <05869>.
18For wild animals <07776> are prowling <01980> over <05921> Mount <02022> Zion <06726>, which lies desolate <08074>.
19But you <0859>, O Lord <03069>, reign forever <05769>; your throne <03678> endures from generation <01755> to generation <01755>.
20Why <04100> do you keep on <05331> forgetting <07911> us? Why do you forsake <05800> us so long <03117> <0753>?
21Bring <07725> us back <07725> to <0413> yourself, O Lord <03068>, so that we may return <07725> to you; renew <02318> our life as in days <03117> before <06924>,
22unless <0518> <03588> you have utterly <03988> rejected <03973> us and are angry <07107> with <05921> us beyond <05704> measure <03966>.
