Lamentations 5:7

Compare all

5 ^aThey pursue at our¹ heels;
We labor and have no rest.

6 ^aWe have given our hand ^bto the Egyptians
And the ^cAssyrians, to be satisfied with bread.

7 ^aOur fathers sinned and are no more,
But we bear their iniquities.

8 Servants rule over us;
There is none to deliver us from their hand.

9 We get our bread at the risk of our lives,
Because of the sword in the wilderness.
