Lamentations 5:4 BBE

²  Our heritage is given up to men of strange lands, our houses to those who are not our countrymen.

³  We are children without fathers, our mothers are like widows.

⁴  We give money for a drink of water, we get our wood for a price.

⁵  Our attackers are on our necks: overcome with weariness, we have no rest.

⁶  We have given our hands to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians so that we might have enough bread.
