51Remember, O Jehovah, what is come upon us: Behold, and see our reproach.+2Our inheritance is turned unto strangers, Our houses unto aliens.+3We are orphans and fatherless; Our mothers are as widows.+4We have drunken our water for money; Our wood is sold unto us.+5Our pursuers are upon our necks: We are weary, and have no rest.+6We have given the hand to the Egyptians, And to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.+7Our fathers sinned, and are not; And we have borne their iniquities.+8Servants rule over us: There is none to deliver us out of their hand.+9We get our bread at the peril of our lives, Because of the sword of the wilderness.+10Our skin is black like an oven, Because of the burning heat of famine.+11They ravished the women in Zion, The virgins in the cities of Judah.+12Princes were hanged up by their hand: The faces of elders were not honored.+13The young men bare the mill; And the children stumbled under the wood.+14The elders have ceased from the gate, The young men from their music.+15The joy of our heart is ceased; Our dance is turned into mourning.+16The crown is fallen from our head: Woe unto us! for we have sinned.+17For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim;+18For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate: The foxes walk upon it.+19Thou, O Jehovah, abidest for ever; Thy throne is from generation to generation.+20Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, [And] forsake us so long time?+21Turn thou us unto thee, O Jehovah, and we shall be turned; Renew our days as of old.+22But thou hast utterly rejected us; Thou art very wroth against us.+
