Lamentations 5:3-5
International Standard Version

3 We are now orphans—without fathers—
    and our mothers are like widows.

4 We pay to drink our own water,
    and our own wood is sold to us at high price.

5 Our pursuers breathe down[a] our necks;
    we are weary, but there is no rest for us.
