Lamentations 5:19–22

19  wBut you, O Lord, reign forever;

your throne endures to all generations.

20  xWhy do you forget us forever,

why do you forsake us for so many days?

21  yRestore us to yourself, O Lord, that we may be restored!

Renew our days as of old—

22  zunless you have utterly rejected us,

and you remain exceedingly angry with us.
