New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Lamentations 5
15 The joy of our hearts has ceased; Our dancing has been turned into mourning.
16 The crown has fallen from our head; Woe to us, for we have sinned!
17 Because of this our heart is faint, Because of these things our eyes are dim;
18 Because of Mount Zion which lies desolate, Foxes prowl in it.
19 You, O Lord, rule forever; Your throne is from generation to generation.
20 Why do You forget us forever? Why do You forsake us so long?
21 Restore us to You, O Lord, that we may be restored; Renew our days as of old,
22 Unless You have utterly rejected us And are exceedingly angry with us.
Ezekiel 1
1 Now it came about in the thirtieth year, on the fifth day of the fourth month, while I was by the river Chebar among the exiles, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.
2 (On the fifth of the month in the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s exile,
3 the word of the Lord came expressly to Ezekiel the priest, son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and there the hand of the Lord came upon him.)
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
