עַל צַוָּארֵנוּ נִרְדָּפְנוּ יָגַעְנוּ לא הֽוּנַח לָֽנוּ
To our very necks we are pursued; We labour, and have no rest.
מִצְרַיִם נָתַנּוּ יָד אַשּׁוּר לִשְׂבֹּעַֽ לָֽחֶם
We have given the hand to Egypt, And to Assyria, to have bread enough;
אֲבֹתֵינוּ חָֽטְאוּ אינם אנחנו עֲוֺנֹתֵיהֶם סָבָֽלְנוּ
Our fathers have sinned, and are not; And we have borne their iniquities.
עֲבָדִים מָשְׁלוּ בָנוּ פֹּרֵק אֵין מִיָּדָֽם
Servants rule over us; There is none to deliver us out of their hand.
בְּנַפְשֵׁנוּ נָבִיא לַחְמֵנוּ מִפְּנֵי חֶרֶב הַמִּדְבָּֽר
We get our bread with the peril of our lives Because of the sword of the wilderness.
