00:00.000 --> 00:04.300
Chapter 5 Remember, O Lord, what has come
upon us.

00:04.900 --> 00:06.580
Consider and behold our reproach.

00:07.160 --> 00:10.700
Our inheritance is turned to strangers,
our houses to aliens.

00:11.420 --> 00:14.500
We are orphans and fatherless,
our mothers are as widows.

00:15.060 --> 00:18.640
We have drunken our water for money,
our wood is sold unto us.

00:19.380 --> 00:23.060
Our necks are under persecution,
we labour and have no rest.

00:23.660 --> 00:27.700
We have given a hand to the Egyptians and
to the Assyrians to be satisfied with

00:27.700 --> 00:28.020
bread.

00:28.020 --> 00:32.220
Our fathers have sinned and are not,
and we have borne their iniquities.

00:33.180 --> 00:37.460
Servants have ruled over us, there is none
that doth deliver us out of their hand.

00:37.840 --> 00:40.940
We got our bread with the peril of our
lives because of the sword of the

00:40.940 --> 00:41.260
wilderness.

00:42.120 --> 00:44.760
Our skin was black like an oven because of
the terrible famine.

00:45.720 --> 00:49.100
They ravished the women in Zion and the
maids in the cities of Judah.

00:50.000 --> 00:53.460
Princes are hanged up by their hand,
the faces of elders were not honoured.

00:54.180 --> 00:57.960
They took the young men to grind and the
children fell under the wood.

00:59.100 --> 01:02.760
The elders have ceased from the gate,
the young men from their music.

01:03.860 --> 01:08.300
The joy of our heart is ceased,
our dance is turned into mourning.

01:09.680 --> 01:13.320
The crown is fallen from our head,
woe unto us that we have sinned.

01:13.800 --> 01:17.420
For this our heart is faint, for these
things our eyes are dim.

01:17.940 --> 01:21.900
Because of the mountain of Zion,
which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.

01:21.900 --> 01:27.340
Thou, O Lord, remainest forever,
thy throne from generation to generation.

01:28.560 --> 01:32.500
Wherefore dost thou forget us forever,
and forsake us so long time?

01:33.340 --> 01:36.440
Turn thou us unto thee, O Lord,
and we shall be turned.

01:37.180 --> 01:41.780
Renew our days as of old, but thou hast
utterly rejected us.

01:42.820 --> 01:44.740
Thou art very wroth against us.
