2. Our inheritance has been turned over to foreigners; our houses to outsiders.
3. We have become orphans without a father; our mothers are like widows.
4. We paid for our drinking water. We acquired our wood for a price.
5. We were dragged by our necks. Being weary, no rest was given to us.
6. We have given our hand to Egypt and to the Assyrians, so that we may be satisfied with bread.
7. Our fathers have sinned, and are not. And we have carried their iniquities.
8. Servants have become rulers over us. There was no one to redeem us from their hand.
