1 Remember, Adonai, what has come upon us. Look, and see our disgrace!
2 Our inheritance is turned over to strangers, our homes to foreigners.
3 We have become orphans, fatherless, our mothers are like widows.
4 We pay silver for the water we drink; our wood comes at a price.
5 Our pursuers are at our necks. We are weary and have no rest.
6 We have held out our hand to Egypt and Assyria to be satisfied with bread.
