Lamentations 5:13-22 World English Bible (WEB)

13. The young men bare the mill; The children stumbled under the wood.

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

15. The joy of our heart is ceased; Our dance is turned into mourning.

16. The crown is fallen from our head: Woe to us! for we have sinned.

17. For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim;

18. For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate: The foxes walk on it.

19. You, Yahweh, remain forever; Your throne is from generation to generation.

20. Why do you forget us forever, And forsake us so long time?

21. Turn us to yourself, Yahweh, and we shall be turned. Renew our days as of old.

22. But you have utterly rejected us; You are very angry against us.
