Femte sången: folkets bön
5 Herre, kom ihåg allt som drabbat oss!
Se vår förnedring!
2 Vår egendom har beslagtagits av främlingar,
våra hus ägs nu av utlänningar.
3 Vi har blivit faderlösa barn,
våra mödrar är som änkor.
4 Vi måste betala för vattnet vi dricker,
och vår ved får vi köpa.
5 Våra förföljare är alldeles inpå oss,
vi är uttröttade men får ingen vila.
6 Vi har gett oss under Egypten och Assyrien
för att få bröd att mätta oss med.
7 Våra förfäder syndade och finns inte mer,
vi får bära deras skuld.
8 Slavar härskar över oss,
och det finns ingen som befriar oss ur deras hand.
9 Med risk för livet hämtar vi vårt bröd,
för svärdet härjar i öknen.
10 Vår hud glöder som en ugn,
vi är febriga av hunger.
11 De har kränkt kvinnorna i Sion
och flickorna i städerna i Juda.
12 Furstarna har de hängt,
och de äldste visas ingen respekt.
13 Unga män sliter vid kvarnstenarna,[a]
pojkar dignar under bördor av ved.
14 De gamla samlas inte längre i stadsporten,
och de ungas musik har upphört.
15 Glädjen är borta ur våra hjärtan,
vår dans har vänts till sorg.
16 Kronan har fallit från vårt huvud.
Ve oss som syndade så!
17 Därför är vårt hjärta så tungt,
därför har våra ögon blivit skumma.
18 Sions berg ligger öde,
schakaler strövar omkring där.
19 Men du, Herre, regerar för evigt,
din tron består från generation till generation.
20 Varför har du glömt oss för alltid,
övergett oss för resten av livet?
21 För oss åter till dig, Herre, så att vi får återvända!
Låt allting bli återställt som det var förut,
22 om du inte helt har förkastat oss
och är så vred på oss.

Lamentations 5
New International Version
Lamentations 5
New International Version
5 Remember, Lord, what has happened to us;
look, and see our disgrace.(A)
2 Our inheritance(B) has been turned over to strangers,(C)
our homes(D) to foreigners.(E)
3 We have become fatherless,
our mothers are widows.(F)
4 We must buy the water we drink;(G)
our wood can be had only at a price.(H)
5 Those who pursue us are at our heels;
we are weary(I) and find no rest.(J)
6 We submitted to Egypt and Assyria(K)
to get enough bread.
7 Our ancestors(L) sinned and are no more,
and we bear their punishment.(M)
8 Slaves(N) rule over us,
and there is no one to free us from their hands.(O)
9 We get our bread at the risk of our lives
because of the sword in the desert.
10 Our skin is hot as an oven,
feverish from hunger.(P)
11 Women have been violated(Q) in Zion,
and virgins in the towns of Judah.
12 Princes have been hung up by their hands;
elders(R) are shown no respect.(S)
13 Young men toil at the millstones;
boys stagger under loads of wood.
14 The elders are gone from the city gate;
the young men have stopped their music.(T)
15 Joy is gone from our hearts;
our dancing has turned to mourning.(U)
16 The crown(V) has fallen from our head.(W)
Woe to us, for we have sinned!(X)
17 Because of this our hearts(Y) are faint,(Z)
because of these things our eyes(AA) grow dim(AB)
18 for Mount Zion,(AC) which lies desolate,(AD)
with jackals prowling over it.
19 You, Lord, reign forever;(AE)
your throne endures(AF) from generation to generation.
20 Why do you always forget us?(AG)
Why do you forsake(AH) us so long?
21 Restore(AI) us to yourself, Lord, that we may return;
renew our days as of old
22 unless you have utterly rejected us(AJ)
and are angry with us beyond measure.(AK)
Lamentations 5
King James Version
Lamentations 5
King James Version
5 Remember, O Lord, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach.
2 Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.
3 We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.
4 We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us.
5 Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.
6 We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
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.
14 The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their musick.
15 The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
16 The crown is fallen from our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned!
17 For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim.
18 Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.
19 Thou, O Lord, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation.
20 Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time?
21 Turn thou us unto thee, O Lord, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.
22 But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us.
