1 Remember, O Lord, what is come upon us; look, and behold our reproach.
2 Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.
3 We are orphans without father; our mothers are as widows.
4 We have drunk our water for money; our wood is sold unto us.
5 Our necks are under persecution; we are become tired and have no rest.
6 We have given the hand to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians to be satisfied with bread.
