Remember, O LORD, what has happened to us; look, and see our disgrace.
Our inheritance has been turned over to aliens, our homes to foreigners.
We have become orphans and fatherless, our mothers like widows.
We must buy the water we drink; our wood can be had only at a price.
Those who pursue us are at our heels; we are weary and find no rest.

Remember, O LORD, what has befallen us; Look, and see our reproach!
Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, Our houses to aliens.
We have become orphans without a father, Our mothers are like widows.
We have to pay for our drinking water, Our wood comes to us at a price.
Our pursuers are at our necks; We are worn out, there is no rest for us.
