Lamentations 5:8-13
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
8
Slaves rule over us;
There is no one to rescue us from their hand.
9
We get our bread at the risk of our lives
Because of the sword in the wilderness.
10
Our skin has become as hot as an oven,
Because of the ravages of hunger.
11
They violated the women in Zion,
The virgins in the cities of Judah.
12
Leaders were hung by their hands;
Elders were not respected.
13
Young men worked at the grinding mill,
And youths staggered under
loads
of wood.
King James Version
Chapter 5
8
Servants have ruled over us: there is none that doth deliver us out of their hand.
9
We gat our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness.
10
Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine.
11
They ravished the women in Zion, and the maids in the cities of Judah.
12
Princes are hanged up by their hand: the faces of elders were not honoured.
13
They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.
Christian Standard Bible

from the ravages of hunger.

Women have been raped in Zion,
virgins in the cities of Judah.

Young men labor at millstones;
boys stumble under loads of wood.

8
Slaves have now become our masters;
there is no one left to rescue us.
9
We hunt for food at the risk of our lives,
for violence rules the countryside.
10
The famine has blackened our skin
as though baked in an oven.
11
Our enemies rape the women in Jerusalem
and the young girls in all the towns of Judah.
12
Our princes are being hanged by their thumbs,
and our elders are treated with contempt.
13
Young men are led away to work at millstones,
and boys stagger under heavy loads of wood.
