NASB
"Our pursuers are at our necks; We are worn out, there is no rest for us."
— Lamentations 5:5, NASB
“Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.”
“Our pursuers are upon our necks: We are weary, and have no rest. ”
“Our pursuers are on our necks: We are weary, and have no rest.”
“We are pursued– they are breathing down our necks; we are weary and have no rest.”
“We were dragged by the necks, we were weary and no rest was given us.”
“Our attackers are on our necks: overcome with weariness, we have no rest.”
“Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.”
Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, Our houses to aliens.
We have become orphans without a father, Our mothers are like widows.
We have to pay for our drinking water, Our wood comes to us at a price.
Our pursuers are at our necks; We are worn out, there is no rest for us.
We have submitted to Egypt and Assyria to get enough bread.
Our fathers sinned, and are no more; It is we who have borne their iniquities.
Slaves rule over us; There is no one to deliver us from their hand.
