Lamentations 5:1-6

New Living Translation NLT

1 LORD, remember what has happened to us. See how we have been disgraced!

2 Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our homes to foreigners.

3 We are orphaned and fatherless. Our mothers are widowed.

4 We have to pay for water to drink, and even firewood is expensive.

5 Those who pursue us are at our heels; we are exhausted but are given no rest.

6 We submitted to Egypt and Assyria to get enough food to survive.
