Lamentations 5:6
4 We must buy the water we drink; our wood comes at a price.
5 We are closely pursued; we are weary and find no rest.
We submitted to Egypt and Assyria to get enough bread.
7 Our fathers sinned and are no more, but we bear their punishment.
8 Slaves rule over us; there is no one to deliver us from their hands.
