RememberH2142, O LORDH3068, what is come upon us: considerH5027, and beholdH7200 our reproachH2781.
Our inheritanceH5159 is turnedH2015 to strangersH2114, our housesH1004 to aliensH5237.
We are orphansH3490 and fatherlessH369+H1, our mothersH517 are as widowsH490.
We have drunkenH8354 our waterH4325 for moneyH3701; our woodH6086 is soldH935+H4242 unto us. {is…: Heb. cometh for price}
Our necksH6677 are under persecutionH7291: we labourH3021, and have no restH5117. {Our…: Heb. On our necks are we persecuted}
We have givenH5414 the handH3027 to the EgyptiansH4714, and to the AssyriansH804, to be satisfiedH7646 with breadH3899.
Our fathersH1 have sinnedH2398, and are notH369; and we have borneH5445 their iniquitiesH5771.
ServantsH5650 have ruledH4910 over us: there is none that doth deliverH6561 us out of their handH3027.
We gatH935 our breadH3899 with the peril of our livesH5315 becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 of the wildernessH4057.
Our skinH5785 was blackH3648 like an ovenH8574 becauseH6440 of the terribleH2152 famineH7458. {terrible: or, terrors, or, storms}
They ravishedH6031 the womenH802 in ZionH6726, and the maidsH1330 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.
PrincesH8269 are hanged upH8518 by their handH3027: the facesH6440 of eldersH2205 were not honouredH1921.
They tookH5375 the young menH970 to grindH2911, and the childrenH5288 fellH3782 under the woodH6086.
The eldersH2205 have ceasedH7673 from the gateH8179, the young menH970 from their musickH5058.
The joyH4885 of our heartH3820 is ceasedH7673; our danceH4234 is turnedH2015 into mourningH60.
The crownH5850 is fallenH5307 from our headH7218: woeH188 unto us, that we have sinnedH2398! {The…: Heb. The crown of our head is fallen}
For this our heartH3820 is faintH1739; for these things our eyesH5869 are dimH2821.
Because of the mountainH2022 of ZionH6726, which is desolateH8074, the foxesH7776 walkH1980 upon it.
Thou, O LORDH3068, remainestH3427 for everH5769; thy throneH3678 from generationH1755 to generationH1755.
Wherefore dost thou forgetH7911 us for everH5331, and forsakeH5800 us so longH753 timeH3117? {so…: Heb. for length of days?}
TurnH7725 thou us unto thee, O LORDH3068, and we shall be turnedH7725; renewH2318 our daysH3117 as of oldH6924.
But thou hast utterlyH3988 rejectedH3988 us; thou art veryH3966 wrothH7107 against us. {But…: or, For wilt thou utterly reject us?}
