Lamentations 5:5-8

EJ2000(i) 5 Our necks are under persecution; we are become tired and have no rest. 6 We have given the hand to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians to be satisfied with bread. 7 Our fathers have sinned and are dead; and we have borne their chastisements. 8 Slaves have ruled over us: there was no one to deliver us out of their hand.
