1 Spomeni se, Jahve, što nas je snašlo, pogledaj, vidi sramotu našu!

2 Baština naša pade u ruke strancima, domovi naši pripadoše tuđincima.

3 Siročad smo: oca nemamo, majke su nam kao udovice.

4 Vodu što pijemo plaćamo novcem, i za drvo valja nam platiti.

5 Jaram nam je o vratu, gone nas, iscrpljeni smo, ne daju nam predahnuti.

6 Pružamo ruke k Egiptu i Asiriji da se kruha nasitimo.

7 Oci naši zgriješiše i više ih nema, a mi nosimo krivice njihove.

8 Robovi nama zapovijedaju, a nitko da nas izbavi iz ruku njihovih.

9 Kruh svoj donosimo izlažući život maču u pustinji.

10 Koža nam gori kao peć užarena, ognjicom od plamena gladi.

11 Oskvrnuli su žene na Sionu i djevice u gradovima judejskim.

12 Svojim su rukama vješali knezove, ni lica staračka nisu poštivali.

13 Mladići su nosili žrvnjeve, djeca padala pod bremenom drva.

14 Starci su ostavili vrata, mladići više ne sviraju na lirama.

15 Radosti nesta iz naših srdaca, naš ples se pretvori u tugovanje.

16 Pao je vijenac s naše glave, jao nama što zgriješismo!

17 Evo zašto nam srce boluje, evo zašto nam oči se zastiru:

18 zato što Gora sionska opustje i po njoj se šuljaju šakali.

19 Ali ti, Jahve, ostaješ zauvijek, tvoj je prijesto od koljena do koljena.

20 Zašto da nas zaboraviš zauvijek, da nas ostaviš za mnoge dane?

21 Vrati nas k sebi, Jahve, obratit ćemo se, obnovi dane naše kao što nekoć bijahu.

22 Il' nas hoćeš sasvim zabaciti i na nas se beskrajno srditi?

22. Verse 5 And there was evening, and there was morning, the first day.

What 'evening' means, and what 'morning', is recognized from what is said above. 'Evening' means every prior state, because it is a state of shade, that is, of falsity and of absence of faith, while 'morning' is every subsequent state, because it is one of light, that is, of truth and of cognitions of faith. 'Evening' in general means all the things that are man's own, whereas 'morning' means all those that are the Lord's, as is said through David,

The Spirit of Jehovah has spoken within me, and His word is upon my tongue. The God of Israel has said, the Rock of Israel has spoken to me. He is like the morning light, when the sun is rising on a cloudless morning, shining bright, as when after rain tender grass [springs up] from the earth. 2 Samuel 23:4.

Because 'evening' is a time when there is no faith, and 'morning' when there is, the Lord's Coming into the world is called 'the morning', and the time at which He comes, since faith does not exist at that point, is called 'the evening', as in Daniel,

The Holy One said to me, Up to the evening when it is becoming morning, two thousand three hundred times. Daniel 8:13-14.

In the Word, 'morning' stands in a similar way for every coming of the Lord, and so is a term describing the new creation.
