Lamentations 5:12-15 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

12. They hang princes by their hand; they do not show respect before elders.

13. Young men must carry a hand-mill and boys stumble under the wood.

14. Elders are no longer at the gate, young men no longer play stringed instruments.

15. The joy of our hearts has stopped; our circle-dancing has changed to a mourning ceremony.
