5To our very necks we are pursued; we labour, and have no rest.
5追趕我們的，到了我們的頸項上； 我們疲乏不得歇息。
6We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Assyria, to have bread enough;

19Thou, O LORD, art enthroned for ever, Thy throne is from generation to generation.
19耶和華啊，你存到永遠； 你的寶座存到萬代。
20Wherefore dost Thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time?
20你為何永遠忘記我們？ 為何許久離棄我們？
21Turn Thou us unto Thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.
21耶和華啊，求你使我們向你回轉， 我們便得回轉。 求你復新我們的日子，像古時一樣。
22Thou canst not have utterly rejected us, and be exceeding wroth against us!
22你竟全然棄絕我們， 向我們大發烈怒？
