Lamentations 5:4-6
Revised Standard Version
Lamentations 5:4-6
Revised Standard Version
4 We must pay for the water we drink,
the wood we get must be bought.
5 With a yoke[a] on our necks we are hard driven;
we are weary, we are given no rest.
6 We have given the hand to Egypt,
and to Assyria, to get bread enough.
