Brenton Brenton's English Septuagint
PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Remember, O Lord, what has happened to us: behold, and look on our reproach.
·
2 Our inheritance has been turned away to aliens, our houses to strangers:
·
3 we are become orphans, we have no father, our mothers are as widows.
·
4 We have drunk our water for money; our wood is sold to us [for a burden] on our neck:
·
5 we have been persecuted, we have laboured, we have had no rest.
·
6 Egypt gave the hand [to us], Assur to their own satisfaction.
·
7 Our fathers sinned, [and] are not: we have borne their iniquities.
·
8 Servants have ruled over us: there is none to ransom [us] out of their hand.
·
9 We shall bring in our bread with [danger of] our lives, because of the sword of the wilderness.
·
10 Our skin is blackened like an oven; they are convulsed, because of the storms of famine.
·
11 They humbled the women in Sion, the virgins in the cities of Juda.
·
12 Princes were hanged up by their hands: the elders were not honoured.
·
13 The chosen men lifted up [the voice in] weeping, and the youths fainted under the wood.
·
14 And the elders ceased from the gate, the chosen men ceased from their music.
·
15 The joy of our heart has ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
·
16 The crown has fallen [from] our head: yea, woe to us! for we have sinned.
·
17 For this has grief come; our heart is sorrowful: for this our eyes are darkened.
·
18 Over the mountain of Sion, because it is made desolate, foxes have walked therein.
·
19 But thou, O Lord, shalt dwell for ever; thy throne [shall endure] to generation and generation.
·
20 Wherefore wilt thou utterly forget us, and abandon us a long time?
·
21 Turn us, O Lord, to thee, and we shall be turned; and renew our days as before.
·
22 For thou hast indeed rejected us; thou hast been very wroth against us.
