| 1 Remember, O Lord, what is come upon us: consider and behold our reproach. | 1 μνησθητι κυριε ο τι εγενηθη ημιν επιβλεψον και ιδε τον ονειδισμον ημων |
| 2 Our inheritance is turned to aliens: our houses to strangers. | 2 κληρονομια ημων μετεστραφη αλλοτριοις οι οικοι ημων ξενοις |
| 3 We are become orphans without a father: our mothers are as widows. | 3 ορφανοι εγενηθημεν ουχ υπαρχει πατηρ μητερες ημων ως αι χηραι |
| 4 We have drunk our water for money: we have bought our wood. | 4 εξ ημερων ημων ξυλα ημων εν αλλαγματι ηλθεν |
| 5 We were dragged by the necks, we were weary and no rest was given us. | 5 επι τον τραχηλον ημων εδιωχθημεν εκοπιασαμεν ουκ ανεπαυθημεν |
| 6 We have given our hand to Egypt, and to the Assyrians, that we might be satisfied with bread. | 6 αιγυπτος εδωκεν χειρα ασσουρ εις πλησμονην αυτων |
| 7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not: and we have borne their iniquities. | 7 οι πατερες ημων ημαρτον ουχ υπαρχουσιν ημεις τα ανομηματα αυτων υπεσχομεν |
| 8 Servants have ruled over us: there was none to redeem us out of their hand. | 8 δουλοι εκυριευσαν ημων λυτρουμενος ουκ εστιν εκ της χειρος αυτων |
| 9 We fetched our bread at the peril of our lives, because of the sword in the desert. | 9 εν ταις ψυχαις ημων εισοισομεν αρτον ημων απο προσωπου ρομφαιας της ερημου |
| 10 Our skin was burnt as an oven, by reason of the violence of the famine. | 10 το δερμα ημων ως κλιβανος επελειωθη συνεσπασθησαν απο προσωπου καταιγιδων λιμου |
| 11 They oppressed the women in Sion, and the virgins in the cities of Juda. | 11 γυναικας εν σιων εταπεινωσαν παρθενους εν πολεσιν ιουδα |
| 12 The princes were hanged up by their hand: they did not respect the persons of the ancient. | 12 αρχοντες εν χερσιν αυτων εκρεμασθησαν πρεσβυτεροι ουκ εδοξασθησαν |
| 13 They abused the young men indecently: and the children fell under the wood. | 13 εκλεκτοι κλαυθμον ανελαβον και νεανισκοι εν ξυλω ησθενησαν |
| 14 The ancients have ceased from the gates: the young men from the choir of the singers. | 14 και πρεσβυται απο πυλης κατεπαυσαν εκλεκτοι εκ ψαλμων αυτων κατεπαυσαν |
| 15 The joy of our heart is ceased, our dancing is turned into mourning. | 15 κατελυσεν χαρα καρδιας ημων εστραφη εις πενθος ο χορος ημων |
| 16 The crown is fallen from our head woe to us, because we have sinned. | 16 επεσεν ο στεφανος της κεφαλης ημων ουαι δη ημιν οτι ημαρτομεν |
| 17 Therefore is our heart sorrowful, therefore are our eyes become dim, | 17 περι τουτου εγενηθη οδυνηρα η καρδια ημων περι τουτου εσκοτασαν οι οφθαλμοι ημων |
| 18 For mount Sion, because it is destroyed, foxes have walked upon it. | 18 επ' ορος σιων οτι ηφανισθη αλωπεκες διηλθον εν αυτη |
| 19 But thou, O Lord, shalt remain for ever, thy throne from generation to generation. | 19 συ δε κυριε εις τον αιωνα κατοικησεις ο θρονος σου εις γενεαν και γενεαν |
| 20 Why wilt thou forget us for ever? why wilt thou forsake us for a long time? | 20 ινα τι εις νεικος επιληση ημων καταλειψεις ημας εις μακροτητα ημερων |
| 21 Convert us, O Lord, to thee, and we shall be converted: renew our days, as from the beginning. | 21 επιστρεψον ημας κυριε προς σε και επιστραφησομεθα και ανακαινισον ημερας ημων καθως εμπροσθεν |
| 22 But thou hast utterly rejected us, thou art exceedingly angry against us. | 22 οτι απωθουμενος απωσω ημας ωργισθης εφ' ημας εως σφοδρα . |
