About Lamentations

Poetic mourning over Jerusalem's destruction.

Old Testament • Book #25

Remember, Lord, what has come on us. Look, and see our disgrace.

Our inheritance is turned over to strangers, our houses to foreigners.

We have to pay for a drink of water; our wood is sold to us.

Our pursuers are on our necks; we are weary, and have no rest.
