NASB
"Young men worked at the grinding mill, And youths stumbled under loads of wood."
— Lamentations 5:13, NASB
“They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.”
“The young men bare the mill; And the children stumbled under the wood. ”
“The young men bare the mill; The children stumbled under the wood.”
“The young men perform menial labor; boys stagger from their labor.”
“They abused the young men indecently: and the children fell under the wood.”
“The young men were crushing the grain, and the boys were falling under the wood.”
“They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.”
Our skin has become as hot as an oven, Because of the burning heat of famine.
They ravished the women in Zion, The virgins in the cities of Judah.
Princes were hung by their hands; Elders were not respected.
Young men worked at the grinding mill, And youths stumbled under loads of wood.
Elders are gone from the gate, Young men from their music.
The joy of our hearts has ceased; Our dancing has been turned into mourning.
The crown has fallen from our head; Woe to us, for we have sinned!
