Lamentations 5:5-10 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

5. Our pursuers are on our necks: we are weary, we have no rest.

6. We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Asshur, to be satisfied with bread.

7. Our fathers have sinned, and they are not; and we bear their iniquities.

8. Bondmen rule over us: there is no deliverer out of their hand.

9. We have to get our bread at the risk of our lives, because of the sword of the wilderness.

10. Our skin gloweth like an oven, because of the burning heat of the famine.
