Lamentations 5:3-7
Lamentations 5:3
We have become orphans, without a father; Our mothers are like widows.
Lamentations 5:4
We have to pay for our drinking water, Our wood comes to us at a price.
Lamentations 5:5
Our pursuers are at our necks; We are worn out, we are given no rest.
Lamentations 5:6
We have submitted to Egypt and Assyria to get enough bread.
Lamentations 5:7
Our fathers sinned, and are gone; It is we who have been burdened with the punishment for their wrongdoings.
