Lamentations 5:8-14 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

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.

11. They have ravished the women in Zion, the maids in the cities of Judah.

12. Princes were hanged up by their hand; the faces of elders were not honoured.

13. The young men have borne the mill, and the youths have stumbled under the wood.

14. The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their music.
