6. We have given our hand to the EgyptiansAnd the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
7. Our fathers sinned and are no more,But we bear their iniquities.
8. Servants rule over us;There is none to deliver us from their hand.
9. We get our bread at the risk of our lives,Because of the sword in the wilderness.
10. Our skin is hot as an oven,Because of the fever of famine.
11. They ravished the women in Zion,The maidens in the cities of Judah.
12. Princes were hung up by their hands,And elders were not respected.
