1 Remember, O Jehovah, what has come upon us; look down and behold our reproach.

2 Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers; our houses to foreigners.

3 We are orphans and fatherless; our mothers are as widows.

4 We have drunk our water for money; our wood comes at a price.

5 We are pursued on our necks; we labor and have no rest.
