Lamentations 5:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² Our princes have been hung up by their hands.
    No one shows our elders any respect.
¹³ Our young men are forced to grind grain at the mill.
    Our boys almost fall down
    as they carry heavy loads of wood.
¹⁴ Our elders don’t go to the city gate anymore.
    Our young men have stopped playing their music.
