Social and Physical Ruin

Lamentations 5:4-10
4
We have drunken our water for money; Our wood is sold to us.
5
Our pursuers are on our necks: We are weary, and have no rest.
6
We have given the hand to the Egyptians, To the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
7
Our fathers sinned, and are no more; We have borne their iniquities.
8
Servants rule over us: There is no one to deliver us out of their hand.
9
We get our bread at the peril of our lives, Because of the sword of the wilderness.
10
Our skin is black like an oven, Because of the burning heat of famine.
