THERE'S NO SECRET WHAT YAH CAN DO WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR OTHER YAH WILL DO FOR YOU

Lamentations 5

5 OH YAH, [earnestly] remember what has come upon us! Look down and see our reproach (our national disgrace)!

2 Our inheritance has fallen over to strangers, our houses to foreigners.

3 We have become Orphans and Fatherless; our Mothers are like widows.

4 We have had to pay money to drink the water that belongs to us; our [own] wood is sold to us.

5 Our pursuers are upon our necks [like a yoke]; We are weary and are allowed no rest.

6 We have given the hand [as a pledge of fidelity and submission] to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians [merely] to get food to satisfy [our hunger].

7 Our fathers sinned and are no more, and [a]we have borne their iniquities.

8 Servants and slaves rule over us; there is none to deliver us out of their hands.

9 We get our bread at the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness [the wild Arabs, who may attack if we venture into the fields to reap our harvests].
