1995 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

A pitiful complaint of Zion in prayer unto God.

5:1 Remember 2142, O LORD 3068, what 4100 has befallen 1961 us; Look 5027, and see 7200 our reproach 2781!

5:2 Our inheritance 5159 has been turned 2015 over to strangers 2114a, Our houses 1004 to aliens 5237.

5:3 We have become 1961 orphans 3490 without 369 a father 1, Our mothers 517 are like widows 490.

5:4 We have to pay 3701 for our drinking 8354 water 4325, Our wood 6086 comes 935 [to us] at a price 4242.

5:5 Our pursuers 7291 are at our necks 6677; We are worn 3021 out, there is no 3808 rest 5117 for us.

5:6 We have submitted 5414 3027 to Egypt 4714 [and] Assyria 804b to get 7646 enough 7646 bread 3899.

5:7 Our fathers 1 sinned 2398, [and] are no 369 more 369; It is we who have borne 5445 their iniquities 5771.

5:8 Slaves 5650 rule 4910 over us; There 369 is no 369 one 369 to deliver 6561 us from their hand 3027.

5:9 We get 935 our bread 3899 at the risk of our lives 5315 Because 4480 6440 of the sword 2719 in the wilderness 4057b.

5:10 Our skin 5785 has become 3648 as hot 3648 as an oven 8574, Because 4480 6440 of the burning 2152 heat 2152 of famine 7458.

5:11 They ravished 6031a the women 802 in Zion 6726, The virgins 1330 in the cities 5892b of Judah 3063.

5:12 Princes 8269 were hung 8518 by their hands 3027; Elders 2205 were not respected 1921.

5:13 Young 970 men 970 worked 5375 at the grinding 2911a mill 2911a, And youths 5288 stumbled 3782 under [loads] of wood 6086.

5:14 Elders 2205 are gone 7673a from the gate 8179, Young 970 men 970 from their music 5058.

5:15 The joy 4885 of our hearts 3820 has ceased 7673a; Our dancing 4234 has been turned 2015 into mourning 60.

5:16 The crown 5850 has fallen 5307 from our head 7218; Woe 188 to us, for we have sinned 2398!

5:17 Because 5921 of this 2088 our heart 3820 is faint 1739, Because 5921 of these 428 things 428 our eyes 5869 are dim 2821;

5:18 Because 5921 of Mount 2022 Zion 6726 which 7945 lies 8074 desolate 8074, Foxes 7776 prowl 1980 in it.

5:19 ¶ You, O LORD 3068, rule 3427 forever 5769; Your throne 3678 is from generation 1755 to generation 1755.

5:20 Why 4100 do You forget 7911 us forever 5331? Why do You forsake 5800a us so 753 3117 long 753 3117?

5:21 Restore 7725 us to You, O LORD 3068, that we may be restored 7725; Renew 2318 our days 3117 as of old 6924a,

5:22 Unless 3588 518 You have utterly 3988a rejected 3988a us [And] are exceedingly 5704 3966 angry 7107 with us.
