4 We have drunk our water at a price; our wood is sold unto us.
5 Our necks are under persecution: we labor, and have no rest.
6 We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
8 Servants have ruled over us: there is none that does deliver us out of their hand.
9 We got our bread at the peril of our lives because of the sword in the wilderness.
10 Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine.
