| LAM 5-1 | Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach. |
| LAM 5-2 | Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens. |
| LAM 5-3 | We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows. |
| LAM 5-4 | We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us. |
| LAM 5-5 | Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest. |
| LAM 5-6 | We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread. |
| LAM 5-7 | Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities. |
| LAM 5-8 | Servants have ruled over us: there is none that doth deliver us out of their hand. |
| LAM 5-9 | We gat our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness. |
| LAM 5-10 | Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine. |
| LAM 5-11 | They ravished the women in Zion, and the maids in the cities of Judah. |
| LAM 5-12 | Princes are hanged up by their hand: the faces of elders were not honoured. |
| LAM 5-13 | They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood. |
| LAM 5-14 | The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their musick. |
| LAM 5-15 | The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning. |
| LAM 5-16 | The crown is fallen from our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned! |
| LAM 5-17 | For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim. |
| LAM 5-18 | Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it. |
| LAM 5-19 | Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation. |
| LAM 5-20 | Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time? |
| LAM 5-21 | Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old. |
| LAM 5-22 | But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us. |
