विलापगीत 5
Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach.
Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.
We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.
We drank our water for money; our wood is sold to us.
Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.
We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
7 ७ आमच्या पूर्वजांनी तुझ्याविरुध्द पाप केले. आता ते नाहीत. पण त्यांच्या पापाची फळे आता आम्ही भोगत आहोत.
Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
Servants have ruled over us: there is none that doth deliver us out of their hand.
We got our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness.
Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine.
They ravished the women in Zion, and the maids in the cities of Judah.
Princes are hanged by their hand: the faces of elders were not honoured.
13 १३ आमच्या तरुणांना त्यांनी पिठाच्या जात्यावर दळावयास लावले. ते तरुण लाकडाच्या ढिगाऱ्याखाली अडखळले.
They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.
The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their music.
The joy of our heart hath ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
The crown is fallen from our head: woe to us, that we have sinned!
For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim.
Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.
Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation.
Why dost thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time?
21 २१ परमेश्वरा, आम्हास तुझ्याकडे परत वळव. आम्ही आमच्या पातकाकरिता पश्चाताप करितो. पूर्वीप्रमाणेच आमच्या जुन्या दिवसाची पुनर्स्थापना कर.
Turn thou us to thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.
But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very angry with us.
